Early life and education
[edit]Laus was born in Iloilo City in the Philippines[13] on June 3, 2000[14][1] and moved to the United Kingdom with her parents at the age of three.[15][16] She grew up in West London listening to Original Pilipino Music as well as pop and rock music from the 1990s. While she was a teenager, she listened to indie rock artists including Karen O, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Florist and Alex G.[1]
She studied at Sacred Heart High School, an all-girls Catholic school, before completing her thirteenth year at Hammersmith Academy.[7][17][18] Laus was expelled from her school at the age of 17, due to failing grades and "misfit behavior".[19] Laus spent seven years learning to play the violin, before getting her first guitar second-hand at the age of 17.[20] She also learned through watching YouTube tutorials produced by other accomplished guitarists.[1] She was inspired by Kimya Dawson and the Juno soundtrack to start making music.[1]
Career
[edit]2017–2019: "Coffee" and early EPs
[edit]
The first song Beabadoobee wrote on her guitar was "Coffee".[21] She took her professional name as a joke[22] when her friend and producer Oscar Lang was preparing to upload "Coffee" and suggested she release her music under an artist name. Beabadoobee was a name she had invented for her finsta account because none of her names were being accepted by Instagram.[23][24]
She released "Coffee" as well as a cover of Karen O's "The Moon Song" in September 2017.[20] "Coffee" gained over 300,000 views on YouTube,[16] as well as the attention of Dirty Hit Records.[25] She signed to the label in April 2018.[26][27] This was followed by the release of her debut EP Lice in March 2018 and her second EP Patched Up in December 2018.[16][28] In January 2019, Beabadoobee was placed with Billie Eilish on NME's annual list of "essential new artists", the "NME 100".[29] She subsequently released her third EP titled Loveworm.[30][21][31] Beabadoobee released an acoustic version of this EP titled Loveworm (Bedroom Sessions) in July 2019.[32]
In September 2019, Beabadoobee embarked on her first tour supporting Clairo on her Immunity Tour,[33][34] before releasing her fourth EP, Space Cadet, in October 2019. Beabadoobee subsequently made the front cover of NME on October 25, 2019.[15] She was shortlisted for the Rising Star Award at the 2020 Brit Awards in December 2019.[35] In November 2019, Beabadoobee released a pair of Spotify Singles, one being a cover of "Don't You Forget About Me" by Simple Minds as well as a version of "She Plays Bass" recorded in Abbey Road Studios in London.[36] In December 2019, Beabadoobee was longlisted in the annual BBC poll of music critics, Sound of 2020.[37]
2020–2021: "Death Bed", Fake It Flowers, and Our Extended Play
[edit]
In February 2020, Beabadoobee performed at the 2020 NME Awards after winning the Radar Award.[38] She supported labelmates the 1975 on their Music for Cars Tour for both the U.K. leg in February 2020.[39] She was scheduled to also support the band during the North American leg of this tour in April 2020;[40] however, it was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[41]
A sample of Beabadoobee's 2017 debut single "Coffee" was used on Canadian rapper Powfu's 2019 single, "Death Bed (Coffee for Your Head)".[42] The song became a massively successful sleeper hit after going viral on the app TikTok in early 2020,[43] becoming Beabadoobee's first official chart entry in her career, both locally and internationally.[44] By April 2020, it had entered the Top 5 in several countries including the U.K., Australia and New Zealand. It earned gold certification status in Belgium, Canada, France, Mexico and New Zealand, as well as Platinum or higher in the U.S. and the U.K. among several other countries. Speaking about her reaction to the popularization of "Death Bed", Beabadoobee said, "I'm not going to lie, it was overwhelming... I kinda hated it. I hated more people knowing about the first song I'd ever written and not my others. I was so stubborn but I grew into it and accepted that's just how life works. I was extremely grateful for its existence and it's only given me more opportunities."[45]
Beabadoobee announced her debut studio album, Fake It Flowers, and released its lead single "Care" on July 14, 2020.[46][47] In early August 2020, she released the album's second single, "Sorry", and revealed the album's track listing, cover art and official release date.[48] Beabadoobee released "Worth It" as the third single,[49] "How Was Your Day?" as the fourth single,[50] and "Together" as the fifth and final single of Fake It Flowers.[51] The album was released on October 16, 2020, to critical acclaim and spent one week in the UK Albums Chart at number 8.[52] According to sales in the United States, Billboard ranked Beabadoobee as the Top New Rock Artist of 2020.[53] She was also one of Apple's Up Next artists in November 2020, releasing two short film-style interviews.[54] In 2021, she embarked on a headlining tour of the United Kingdom and Ireland to support the album.[55][56]
Beabadoobee released the single "Last Day on Earth" on March 24, produced and co-written by Matty Healy and George Daniel of the 1975.[57] The musician announced that the single is taken from her EP Our Extended Play, which she said that she wrote with her labelmates "on the countryside".[58]
2022–2025: Beatopia and This Is How Tomorrow Moves
[edit]
Her second album, Beatopia, was announced on March 23, 2022. It was released on July 15, 2022, through Dirty Hit and spawned the R.I.A.A. Gold certified song "The Perfect Pair."[59]
In January 2023, Beabadoobee posted the snippet of an unreleased song on TikTok, which soon went viral across the website due to its popularity with couples and the approach of the upcoming holiday. "Glue Song" was later released on Valentine's Day, February 14, 2023, with another version featuring Clairo released on April 17, 2023, which charted in several countries. The collaboration gained significant attention and marked a continued evolution in her sound, blending chamber pop with heartfelt lyrics inspired by her personal experiences.[60]
Starting in March 2023, Beabadoobee toured in Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, Belgium, Norway, Netherlands, Sweden and Denmark. Beabadoobee also performed as an opening act on twelve shows of the US leg of Taylor Swift's 2023 The Eras Tour.[61]
On June 29, 2023, Beabadoobee announced that she would cancel her European tour due to an unspecified illness.[62] She then announced a new single on July 11, 2023, called "The Way Things Go", which was released on July 19.[63] Beabadoobee then released a new single with Laufey, "A Night to Remember", which was released on October 20, 2023.[64]
Her third studio album, This Is How Tomorrow Moves, was released on August 9, 2024,[65] which went on to debut at number 1 in the UK, making it her first number-one album.[66]
2026–present: Pylon
[edit]In June 2026, Beabadoobee announced her fourth studio album, Pylon, featuring collaborations with Hayley Williams and Brendan Yates.[67] The album's lead single, "Sun Has Set", was released the same day. On July 15 of the same year, she also released another single, "Switchblade". Beginning on July 30, 2026, she will embark upon an international tour in support of Pylon, which is set to release September 18, 2026 via Dirty Hit.[68]

[edit]
Laus has cited Apo Hiking Society, the Beatles, Mac DeMarco, Daniel Johnston, Mazzy Star, the Moldy Peaches, Pavement, Simon and Garfunkel, Elliott Smith, Avril Lavigne, Veruca Salt and the Sundays as her musical influences.[4][16][69][70][71] She has a tattoo of Johnston's artwork from the cover of his album Continued Story with Texas Instruments.[72] In a 2018 interview with Vice, she expressed plans to make film soundtracks in the future as they heavily inspired her to make music.[16] Laus' musical style is also deeply influenced by 80s alternative rock and shoegaze bands like the Cure,[73] My Bloody Valentine,[74] the Smashing Pumpkins,[75] and the Smiths.[73]
Personal life
[edit]Laus is bisexual.[2] She says that she can understand the Philippine languages Hiligaynon and Tagalog, but cannot speak them.[76]
