In a move that proves some creative connections are simply meant to be, beabadoobee and The Marías recently delivered a dreamy single, “All I Did Was Dream of You.” But the creative momentum doesn’t stop there, as singer/songwriter Beatrice Laus is ready to open a brand new chapter in her story.
Laus is gearing up for her fourth album, Pylon, which is set to drop on September 18th via Dirty Hit and Interscope. Following the success of 2024’s U.K. chart-topper This Is How Tomorrow Moves, this new record promises a sonic evolution, previewed by the latest single “Sun Has Set” and a compelling first-person video directed by longtime visual collaborator Jake Erland.
The concept behind the album title, Pylon, draws inspiration from the towering electrical structures that crisscross the globe. For Laus, these lines evolved into a powerful symbol—a tether to home amidst the isolation experienced while on the road. The pylons served as a reminder of family and friends even as touring created a sense of disconnect, ultimately inspiring the album’s jagged, forceful identity.
Musically, Pylon deepens Laus’ established love for rock music while inviting an eclectic lineup of alternative talent. The track “Nothing To Prove” features Paramore’s Hayley Williams, delivering an anthem about reclaiming power from temporary friendships. Brendan Yates of Turnstile lends his voice to the brooding “Powerlines,” while guests include Pinegrove’s Evan Stephens Hall, Deftones’ Chino Moreno, and Title Fight’s Shane Moran. Adding to the creative tapestry, Matty Healy and George Daniel of the 1975 contributed production work on the track “Write Me a Letter.”
This new material is set to hit the road with the Powerlines tour this fall, marking Laus’ first arena trek and biggest headlining run to date. Beginning October 1st, the journey will take her to massive venues including Madison Square Garden in New York, Los Angeles’ Kia Forum, and London’s O2. The tour is supported by Wisp and Violet Grohl across North America, Canada, and the U.K., with Violet Grohl joining the European leg.
Fans can secure tickets through a presale beginning June 29th, with general tickets available July 2nd. Get ready for an experience that is both deeply personal and explosively loud.
