In a rare glimpse of London sunshine last week (May 9), fans formed a queue that encircled the entire Dazed Space block in anticipation of the launch of beabadoobee’s new single, “Take A Bite”. The music video for the track was unveiled for the first time to the audience, premiering on a large screen in the space. With drinks provided by Heineken, Old Mout Cider, DRTY, Sake Sling and Punchy, beabadoobee’s listeners were given the chance to celebrate the new release with her in person, and were even treated to a DJ set from Jacob Bugden, beabadobee's bandmate, main collaborator and co-producer.

Born in the Philippines and raised in London, beabadoobee was first catapulted to the public eye when her 2017 release "Coffee" went viral, and has since captivated audiences on both sides of the Atlantic. Recorded at Rick Rubin’s famous Shangri-La studios, this new music video features the critically-acclaimed artist in a Groundhog Day-like state of passionate delirium as she spirals out of control. It also announced the run up to her third LP, This Is How Tomorrow Moves, releasing on August 16, which eagle-eyed viewers may have noticed advertised on a lampost in the music video.

Dazed’s central London location was awash with images of beabadoobee as over 500 fans passed through the doors and took over the space for the evening.
