About Drake Bell

Drake Bell is an American actor, singer, and songwriter known for a musical style that blends pop, rock, and R&B, with elements of pop rock, power pop, rockabilly, and rock and roll. His 2014 album, "Ready Steady Go!", embraced a rockabilly sound. In recent endeavors, Bell released the independent album "Non-Stop Flight" in 2024, and has put out several singles including "Dandelion," "By The Ocean," "Te Desenamoraste," "Hollywouldn't," and "I Kind of Relate" in 2024, "Break Your Heart" in 2025, and "Nevermind (Piano Diaries)" in 2026. He maintained an active touring schedule in 2025, performing 91 shows and taking 150 flights, including tours in Latin America. Bell gained significant attention in March 2024 with his participation in the "Quiet on Set" documentary, where he revealed he was a victim of abuse as a child actor by a dialogue and acting coach at Nickelodeon, a decision he stated was inspired by his son. Following his interview for the documentary, he sought rehab. He has made multiple appearances on Josh Peck and Ben Soffer's "Good Guys" podcast, initially in 2025 to discuss his past experiences and again in February 2026 for a more positive conversation focusing on fatherhood and personal growth. Bell has also teased a potential reunion project with Josh Peck, envisioning something "more special" than a simple reboot, possibly a buddy comedy where they play themselves, and in December 2024, he shared an idea for a "Curb Your Enthusiasm"-style show. Furthermore, he is currently writing and working on a film in Mexico. In April 2023, Bell was briefly reported missing and endangered, with authorities later confirming he was found safe and received a mental health evaluation after sending suicidal messages. He also faced legal issues in 2021, pleading guilty to attempted child endangerment and disseminating matter harmful to juveniles, resulting in probation and community service.
