It’s the latest track lifted from their forthcoming second album, ‘Sink Into Me’.

Ahead of the release of their new album ‘Sink Into Me’ on 18th March via Believe, Babeheaven are sharing their newest single ‘Heartbeat’.

“The lyrics to ‘Heartbeat’ were written on my way back from Luca’s house,” the band’s Nancy Andersen explains. “We drove past a car crash, which had a blue tarpaulin over it. It means a fatal incident has happened, but I didn’t know that until the driver told me. I wrote a poem about the moment - because really hit me, deeply Later, we started a song and we were caught in a cycle of chords. It was a good opportunity to use that poem. Inspired by Arthur Russell, the beat underneath it is pushing the words around. Like a chugging cello. But in this songs the drums go around and round until it breaks.”

Babeheaven middle that imprecise Venn diagram where R&B cuddles with trip hop, flirts with pop, burlesques with lounging psych.
