If you’ve spent even five minutes on TikTok lately, chances are you’ve stumbled into the world of Bea and her Business, a world where chaos is welcome, vulnerability is currency, and oversharing is practically a superpower. Born and raised in West London, Bea has been manifesting her rise since she was nine, making bets with her sisters that she’d be a pop star. While most childhood dreams fade out, Bea’s has only sharpened — fueled by a killer sense of humor, and a clear vision of the kind of artist she wants to be, and is rapidly becoming.
We were lucky enough to catch Bea on the roof while she was in Australia, fresh off a few mind blowing months that included 70M+ global streams, winning Amazon Music’s Breakthrough Artist, and being crowned Instagram’s Next Gen star. Just casually.
Her performance? Effortlessly disarming. Somewhere between a confessional voice note and a polished pop show. Tracks like “We’re Not The Same” and the mega-streaming “Safety Net” gave us a peek into her universe: all youthful angst, and that knack for writing a chorus that sticks in your head for days.
Bea’s music is deeply online in the best way, a reflection of a generation trying to keep it together while laughing at the madness. But beyond the stats and virality, there’s real artistry here. She owns the contradictions, and sings the stuff you’re thinking but too afraid to say. With Aussie headline shows quietly in the works and a return tour supporting The Wombats and SummerSalt on the horizon, Bea is only just getting started. Catch her now, before she’s selling out arenas and still somehow joking about it in the captions.
MORE MOODS
Ruel Australia
Sydney's RUEL joins us on Mood on the Roof, which this time just happens to be a floor down, for a secret YouTube Music Nights show in our warehouse, played in the round to a sweat-soaked crowd getting the new Kicking My Feet & Screaming songs at point-blank range.
Sports United States
Oklahoma’s Sports have spent the last decade making electronic/pop music that’s almost too slippery to categorise, pulling psych, funk, soft rock and electronics into something unmistakably their own. They hit the roof with two cuts from their new self-titled record, the nervy, glitch-heavy “Drama King” and the much warmer “Keep Falling in Love”.
Jack Gray Australia
Jack Gray performs Winter City like a late check-in from the road, all cold-air pop hooks and touring fatigue, the sound of an Australian kid looking around a foreign skyline and turning the homesick feeling into something you can sing along to.
Chris Lanzon Australia
Chris Lanzon returns to the roof, with alll of this artistic growth coming to fruition on Lanzon’s long-awaited debut album, “You’re Missing The Best Part”. Lanzon steps back in with an expanded arrangement and bringing friends for “Dinner Party” and “Weatherman”.
