Genre-blending pop rock band Babygirl recently released a dreamy new remix for their wistful song “Homemade Holiday” – a gift for their fans ahead of the Holiday season. The song, reimagined by Chicago-based producer Billy Lemos, is a tender, slow-burning reminder of the things that really matter this December: each other. “Homemade Holiday” first appeared on Babygirl’s 2018 EP Lovers Fevers which included standout single “Soft.” Joining the ranks of indie pop rock darlings Phoebe Bridgers, Clairo, and Soccer Mommy, Babygirl’s recent single “EASY” is quickly adding to their over 3 million streams and was featured on Spotify’s New Music Friday playlist, Apple’s New Music Daily, and major indie pop playlists including the cover of Pop And Chill. Babygirl’s pop songs with sad guitars have independently amassed over 3 million organic streams to receive acclaim from Paper Magazine, NPR, Noisey, Stereogum, UPROXX, High Snobiety, and more. Accomplished songwriters who also recently co-produced Lauv’s “Canada ft. Alessia Cara,” Babygirl trojan horse clever lyrics and vast musicality into airy pop songs – anchoring them in palpable emotion to provide a release that can soothe listeners by expressing feelings that they may not have been able to express on their own.
Babygirl received immediate love from Spotify for their first ever single “Overbored” and, with the release of their sophomore 2018 EP Lovers Fevers and standout single “Soft”, caught the attention of GRAMMY-nominated powerhouse J Kash [Katy Perry, Charlie Puth] who signed them to Sandlot Records in global partnership with AWAL Recordings. Babygirl is made up of Kirsten “Kiki” Frances, who counts Avril Lavigne, Kelly Clarkson, and Hilary Duff as some of her formative influences and began penning songs at nine-years-old, and Cameron “Bright” Breithaupt, who grew up surrounded by music as the child of two full-time professional musicians. Despite the two sharing admiration for Alvvays, blink-182, John Mayer, Death Cab For Cutie, and Taylor Swift, their paths ultimately crossed and collided in high school when united by Lil Wayne. With much more music to come, make sure to keep an eye on Babygirl as they gear up for 2021 and a big year ahead. You can connect with Babygirl via the following links. Photo credit: Becca Hamel.
