Beabadoobee has laid out plans for her third studio album.
The follow-up to 2022's 'Beatopia' is called 'This Is How Tomorrow Moves' and will arrive on August 16 via her long-time label Dirty Hit.
Recorded with producer Rick Rubin at his Shangri-La studios in Malibu, the album is previewed by the grunge-pop lead single, Take A Bite. Introducing it, the London-based singer-songwriter said:
"It’s me feeling introspective about my thoughts and unhealthy way of living. It's finding comfort in a familiar place – finding comfort in chaos, because that’s what I know. So I bring it into every aspect of my life, especially with relationships. And it's just tapping into this part of my brain where I just jump straight to the most negative, most chaotic thought ever known to man and make and make that into my reality."
"I love this album," she continued. "I feel like it’s helped me so much more than anything else has in navigating this new era, this new understanding of where I’m at. I guess it’s about becoming a woman."
"I think I’m more aware of my actions in these songs. In my previous records, I would consistently sing about my reaction towards other people's doings, like a blame game. But in this record, it's accepting that there's an inevitability of my fault in there too. Whether it's childhood trauma or relationship issues, it takes two to tango in everything."
Having supported Taylor Swift on the North American leg of the superstar's Eras Tour, Beabadoobee will top the bill of the New Music stage at BBC Radio 1's Big Weekend in Luton later in May. She'll also headline the Radio 1 stage at Reading andLeeds, and support Mitski at London's All Points East festival in August.
