You guys — beabadoobee just dropped a massive announcement on Pitchfork about her upcoming album Pylon, and it’s so much bigger than my first post let on! She signed with Russo Music after years of being sidelined by previous management who actually withheld songwriting credits from her for nearly seven years while she wrote hits for everyone else. The new deal means no more getting erased, which is a huge win for anyone following her journey. Plus, Mondo Records will handle deluxe and vinyl editions separately — that's the kind of detail you don't see often in these announcements!
The tracklist is 32 songs deep and every title feels like it could be its own album: "She Kept Writing Songs Even When Nobody Heard Any Of Them For Months At A Time", "He Called Me And Asked If I Wanted His Car After Everything That Happened", and even a closing line about not having anything left to say. Her previous two albums dropped in the cities of her birth, but Pylon is breaking tradition — it's dropping everywhere at once, with release dates set for London on Nov 24, Paris on Dec 6, Berlin on Dec 7, and NYC on Dec 8. She’s also playing a special pre-release show at The Shrine in LA on Oct 19 with guest DJ GUMBO to kick off the rollout. I cannot wait to hear how all these songs tie together!
