Babeheaven: Momentum
West-London five-piece Babeheaven were born out of a long-standing friendship between singer Nancy and guitarist Jamie, who started spending time together in earnest whilst working on the same street in Ladbroke Grove (she in her grandmother’s antique shop, and he in a soul-destroying stint at an organic farm store). Musically, Babeheaven’s tastes were similarly neighboring: bonding over a love of trip-hop, soul and ethereal electronics (everything from Portishead and James Blake to Stevie Wonder), a typical evening spent hanging out turned into an attempt to write a song together. Their tribute to Domino’s Pizza may never see the light of day, but in finding drummer Harry, keyboard/guitarist Milo and bassist Hugo, the foundations of Babeheaven were formed instead.
“We have a lot to look forward to this year! With the help of the Momentum Fund we will be able to achieve even more than we thought possible. In April we will be starting our tour with Beach Baby and on the 8th our debut single is out! Everything is really coming together and it feels like the Momentum Fund will be an important part of enabling us to move forward in the way that we desire” – Babeheaven
