Babehoven have released new single “Lightness Is Loud,” the track is off their their recently announced new album, Water’s Here In You. The song is accompanied by a video created by Olive Couri. Water’s Here In You drops April 26th on Double Double Whammy. The duo, comprised of Maya Bon and Ryan Albert wrote and recorded at 12 Lb Genius, their home home studio, throughout the winter of 2022–2023. Babehoven is hitting the road this spring in support of Water’s Here In You. The run of dates, includes stops in Los Angeles, Brooklyn, Chicago, and more.

Of the song, Maya Bon says “We exist in a vacuum of sound, trying to hear each other, wishing to open up, seeing the abundance of light surrounding us, approximately 200 billion trillion stars and yet we falter, we harden in our shells. With the ‘coral snake curl[ing] inside you,’ I intend to evoke an image of protection. The ‘soft wool’ is the innate warmth and safety one can find within connection. The ‘rough blue’ is the scratchiness of the wool that can cause us to seek refuge away from one another. And the ‘pearl inside you’ is indicative of the belief that we all contain beauty, worthiness, a special gem within us.”
