Describe your sound in three words?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Nancy Andersen:<\/strong> The, Ride, Home.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Four years later, why do you feel this was the right timing for <i>Slower Than Sound<\/i>?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>NA:<\/strong> Well I think it\u2019s more like three years! Personally I needed some time to regroup and think about approaching music in a new way. Empty my head, grow up, think about what making and releasing music looked like now.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After a small break I started writing alone which was a very alien experience and it became part of my routine, then Jamie and I started looking at some of the demos I had made and then working together on them and writing as we always have. At our own pace which sometimes is slow and sometimes the songs just flow.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I\u2019m not sure if you can ever choose the \u201cright time\u201d but we were happy with how everything sounded so it was the right time to do it!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>3. What does<i> Slower Than Sound<\/i> mean to you?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>NA:<\/strong> It means moving at your own pace, it is kind of the core of babeheaven, not rushing being organic. Letting things have time to become what they need to be. Not forcing anything\u2026 The speed of sound is way too fast for me, I\u2019d rather be slower.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>4. If you could save one track from <i>STS<\/i> from a burning building, what would it be and why?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>NA:<\/strong> It depends on the day! I love all the songs in different ways, today it would be <em>Loud Thoughts<\/em> \u2013 I love <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/greengumballl\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Samba<\/a>\u2018s verse on it. I think it took the song to a whole new level and every time I listen it makes me feel happy!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Jamie Travis:<\/strong> Beloved for me, I just think its very pretty and think the track fits together very nicely and effortlessly<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>5. How do you feel your musical style has evolved since you first started making music together?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>NA:<\/strong> I think our music sound has evolved in lots of different ways, the last album was more of a full band experience, we tried to record in the room all together. I would say this project is more intimate and back to the bedroom roots more like our first singles, stripped back and focusing on lyrics and good song writing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>JT:<\/strong> Yes like Nancy said, I think it\u2019s nice and natural as we evolve as people to evolve the sound or what you want to do in some way with each record. And with this record was definitely stripping back to a minimal amount of equipment and the tools at our disposal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>6. You\u2019ve worked with incredible visual creatives; <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/10magazine.com\/see-the-best-aw25-campaigns-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Frank Lebon<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/10magazine.com\/english-as-a-second-language-hanna-moon-joyce-ng-somerset-house\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Joyce Ng<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/margotbowman\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Margot Bowman<\/a>. How important are visuals to Babeheaven\u2019s world?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>NA:<\/strong> Super important, it\u2019s the next layer to the music. Music videos and artwork take just as much work to get right and to reflect what we\u2019ve made so we\u2019re always looking for people to collaborate with and keep painting the next picture for our music.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>7. <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/villageunderground.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Village Underground<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/thejazzcafe.com\/?\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jazz Caf\u00e9<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/bushhallmusic.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bush Hall<\/a>, where\u2019s next on your bucket list?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>NA:<\/strong> Wherever will take us\u2026. <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/10magazine.com\/block-9-glastonbury-nyc-downlow-iicon-genosys-interviews\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Glastonbury<\/a> we\u2019re waiting for you to call.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>8. Who\u2019s a dream collaborator, dead or alive?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>NA:<\/strong> I love <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/10magazine.com\/rip-george-michael\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">George Michael<\/a>, I would love to write a song with him. He is the most amazing song writer and I feel blessed every time I listen to his songs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>JT:<\/strong> For me <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.brianwilson.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Brian Wilson<\/a>, who sadly passed away this year. I just think he was a true musical genius and wrote such beautiful, sad and also happy songs that to work with someone like that would be very inspiring and there would be a lot to learn.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>9. If this EP were a film, what kind of film would it be?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>NA:<\/strong> It would be something cozy, but mysterious, like a yuppie nightmare think <em>Fatal Attraction<\/em>. A film that in the beginning feels like a romcom and then goes dark. I would say that my lyrics can be really deep, but sung in a cute way\u2026 if you listen closer there is always more to uncover.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>10. How do you both keep inspiring each other after so many years side by side?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>NA:<\/strong> Writing music is like speaking another language. I think we just understand each other\u2019s language really well. We take breaks and come back to it too which means we both have time to learn more and bring it back to each other. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>Photography by <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stuart Nimmo.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/babeheavenband\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@babeheavenband<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source 10magazine.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1.
