Babeheaven preview new album with fourth single "Heartbeat"
Babeheaven have released new single "Heartbeat" as the fourth outing from their upcoming second album Sink Into Me.
"Heartbeat" will appear on Babeheaven's Sink Into Me alongside "Make Me Wanna", "Don't Wake Me" and "The Hours".
Lead vocalist Nancy Andersen says, "The lyrics to "Heartbeat" were written on my way back from Luca’s house. 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 [it] 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."
Sink Into Me will follow Babeheaven's 2020 debut album Home For Now.
