beabadoobee – She Plays Bass
Thereโs nothing wrong with Beatrice Lausโ real name. But her artist name beabadoobee is genuinely swinging. So far, the 19-year-old London singer-songwriterโs musical style has mostly been pigeon-holed as โbedroom popโ. A description that relates more to technical issues than to content, in my opinion. Nevertheless, more and more artists pop up in this category. Time for beabadoobee to move onโฆ
Her new single is called She Plays Bass, so youโre right when you presume it to feature a dominant bass line. This, along with a shift towards ’90s indie-rock, gives the song a nostalgic, New Order kind of vibe. However, according to a press release, it was inspired by Sleater-Kinney and The Breeders. No complaints thereโฆ
