Beabadoobee is a Filipino-British singer-songwriter born on June 3, 2000, in Iloilo City (Philippines), known for her nostalgic blend of ‘90s-inspired alt-rock, shoegaze, and bedroom pop. Born Beatrice Kristi Ilejay Laus in Iloilo City and raised in London, she began recording music in 2017 with her viral track “Coffee.” She followed with a series of lo-fi EPs—[m=2864134], [m=1622571], [m=1587837], and [m=1926555]—that showcased her raw, diary-like songwriting. Her debut album [m=1822698] (2020) marked a shift into grunge-infused rock, followed by the collaborative [m=2316448] (2021), co-written with [a3231113]'s [a3480219] and [a437154]. In 2022, she released [m=2708981], an ambitious, genre-blending record rooted in dream pop and introspection. Her third studio album [m=3563978] (2024) debuted at No. 1 in the UK, further establishing her evolution from lo-fi beginnings to indie rock prominence.
