Babehoven, announce their new album, Water’s Here In You, The news is paired with a video for the lead single and album opener “Birdseye,” and is now available via Double Double Whammy. The New York duo includes Maya Bon and Ryan Albert. Babehoven also announce a US Spring tour in support of Water’s Here In You, that kicks off on May 5th in Washington DC.

On “Birdseye,” Bon examines human relationships, reconciliation, and forgiveness. The song was written after reconnecting with an estranged family member who was gravely ill. “‘Birdseye’ is about the fragility and mystery of life, forgiveness, and reconnection. The bird’s eye view with “one long arrow pointed at you” represents love from afar, a cardinal direction. It is a song about warmth, represented by the aromatic spices ginger, nutmeg, and cinnamon in the heat of a stew. Steeped in a perfumed simmer of care, we move through the pain and find a way to forgive,” Bon explains.

Water’s Here In You was written and recorded at 12 Lb Genius, throughout the winter of 2022–2023. The album drops on April 26th via Double Double Whammy (Hatchie, Hovvdy). For the first time, Albert—who has operated as instrumentalist, producer, and engineer on past releases—joins forces with Bon as a songwriter, lending new depths to their musical partnership.
