BABY QUEEN RELEASES DEBUT ALBUM 'QUARTER LIFE CRISIS'
PLAYING SOLD OUT SHOWS IN LA AND NYC THIS MONTH
“Baby Queen’s album is a tour-de-force – Bella Latham is 2023’s perfect star” DORK ★★★★★
The wait is over for her devoted kingdom as BABY QUEEN releases her eagerly awaited debut album Quarter Life Crisis.
Quarter Life Crisis features 12 tracks including previously released singles “Dream Girl,” “We Can Be Anything” and “Quarter Life Crisis.” It was produced by long-time BABY QUEEN collaborator King Ed. Quarter Life Crisis is available in multiple formats including CD, a deluxe CD featuring limited edition artwork from Heartstopper creator Alice Oseman and coloured vinyl.
Having spent the best part of the 2020s taking over London’s anarchic anti-pop scene and writing songs for a generation falling out of love with social media that transformed her into her genre’s reigning star, BABY QUEEN is discovering the more grounded and introspective side of herself too, leading to the creation of some of the most pure, excellent and affecting music of her life so far.
LISTEN TO QUARTER LIFE CRISIS HERE
Elaborating on Quarter Life Crisis, Latham says, “This album tells the story of my journey through my early 20s - leaving my childhood and my adolescence behind but never really losing my childlike wonder and never quite growing up. The songs are all facets of what early adulthood has been like for me while discovering new parts of myself, my sexuality, my past and my place in this world.
It has been lonely, chaotic, beautiful, devastating and inspiring and I think these songs reflect that, creating a space in which innocence and experience can live side by side as two conflicting entities. I've always been really inspired by the dichotomy and tension between two opposite things - hence the name Baby Queen. Human beings are complex, and life and growth are complex and nuanced.
I'm not sure anybody ever truly feels like they have it all figured out - I certainly don't, but it has been the greatest joy of my life to be able to share my experiences with those willing to listen to my stories.
I really want this album to leave people feeling hopeful, because there is so much beauty to live through and look forward to and it truly is magical and extraordinary to be alive and to have the very short opportunity to experience every emotion imaginable.” BABY QUEEN is currently midway through her sold out ‘Quarter Life Crisis’ UK tour and will be heading state side in the end of November/
