About Beabadoobee

Beatrice Kristi Ilejay Laus was born on 3 June 2000 in Iloilo City, in the Western Visayas region of the Philippines, and moved with her family to London at the age of three, settling in the Camden and West London area where she went on to attend a Catholic girls' school. The 'beabadoobee' moniker started as a teenage Instagram handle — a nonsense word her father improvised — and stuck through the SoundCloud era and into the Dirty Hit signing. The origin story of the music is unusually specific: at seventeen her father gave her an acoustic guitar, she taught herself the chords to learn a song her family liked, and within days she had written 'Coffee', a one-take bedroom recording uploaded to SoundCloud in 2017 that found a TikTok audience and, in early 2020, a second life when Canadian rapper Powfu sampled it on 'death bed (coffee for your head)' — a track that charted in more than two dozen countries and ultimately hit the top fifteen on the US Billboard Hot 100. Dirty Hit Records signed her on the strength of the early SoundCloud catalogue and the EPs 'Lice', 'Patched Up', 'Loveworm', and 'Space Cadet' that followed, with the latter showcasing the 1990s-alt-rock pivot — Pavement, Veruca Salt, Alanis Morissette, Mazzy Star — that would define the debut album. 'Fake It Flowers' arrived in October 2020 to broad critical praise from NME, Pitchfork, Stereogum and The Guardian, and 'Care', 'Worth It', 'Sorry' and 'Sun May Shine' became the live-set anchors of the early headline cycle. 'Beatopia', released in July 2022, opened the writing out into bossa nova, twee-pop and chamber arrangements — 'Glue Song', the duet with Clairo, and 'Sunny Day' and 'See you Soon' demonstrated the broader palette without abandoning the guitar-band centre of gravity. 'This Is How Tomorrow Moves', released in August 2024 and produced by Rick Rubin at Shangri-La Studios in Malibu, leaned further into the confessional singer-songwriter tradition with 'Take a Bite', 'Coming Home' and 'The Way Things Go' becoming the most recent live cornerstones, and earned widespread end-of-year list placement. Across the three album cycle she has toured extensively in her own right, opened arena and stadium dates for The 1975 across the UK and the United States, played Coachella main-stage, and accepted selected Asia-leg support slots on Taylor Swift's Eras tour, which broadened her audience considerably across the Philippines, Singapore and Japan.
