September 8, 2020 – beabadoobee, one of the buzziest artists of 2020, with more than
900 million streams, including the
sixth most streamed song of the summer, “deathbed (coffee for your head),” has released her brand new single “
Worth It” from her highly-anticipated
debut full-length album,
Fake It Flowers, out
October 16 on
Dirty Hit – PRESS HERE to listen/stream
“Worth It.” Fake It Flowers is available for pre-order
HERE and
Bea’s new line of merch is available now
HERE.
Flickering with ambiance created by brazen grunge-era guitar, “Worth It” captures the emotions of letting go of the nostalgic sentiments and mistakes that still haunt us from a previous relationship. The new single is written “simply about teenage infidelity” Bea shares, “and the mistakes one can make when they’re tempted to do things. It’s a bit of a confession song but also an understanding that it’s a part of life.”
“Worth It” will join a pair of previously released singles from
Fake It Flowers, “
Sorry,” a transformative confessional, knotted by vast guitar structures and agonizingly-vivid songwriting, and “
Care,” an explicitly vulnerable new direction for Bea, rejecting sympathy from anyone who doesn’t take the time to get to know the real her and understand what she’s gone through in her life – complete with a cathartic, swooping chorus. The collection has garnered praise from
New York Times, Cosmopolitan, Rolling Stone, NPR, Teen Vogue, Pitchfork, Wall Street Journal, The Fader, i-D, Uproxx, Consequence of Sound, Stereogum, Nylon, Complex, DuJour, and
BBC Radio 1, who premiered “
Care” on
Hottest Record In The World by Annie Mac, helping to propel the track to well over three million streams.
beabadoobee has also announced the Fake It Flowers headline tour for Fall 2021 with 14 dates across the UK and Ireland, including a hometown show at London’s O2 Forum Kentish Town. Presale tickets go on sale Wednesday, September 9, 2020; general on-sale begins Friday, September 11, 2020.
After signing with Dirty Hit following her viral single
“Coffee,” she toured with indie pop star
Clario, graced the cover of NME, (who labeled her “devastatingly cool”), and received a billboard in Times Square as part of
YouTube’s global artist program Foundry. She kicked off 2020 with a nomination for the
BRIT Rising Star Award and the
BBC Sound of 2020, as well as a performance at the
NME Awards and at
The 1975’s O2 Arena shows. Her two most recent
critically-lauded 2019 EPs, Space Cadet, and Loveworm, along with Canadian artist Powfu’s “
deathbed (coffee for your head)”
ft. beabadoobee, a TikTok smash which sampled “
Coffee” and climbed into the top 20 chart in 27 countries and brought Bea her first
RIAA Platinum Certification.
