Heavenly signs new artist . . . Sea of Bees
“Sea of Bees and Caitlin Rose are without doubt the best two new female voices Rough Trade have heard this year” From the Rough Trade shops website
We are delighted to announce another great signing to Heavenly … Sea of Bees came to our attention via a very astute American publicist who as an avid reader of Heavenly’s Caught By The River website instinctively thought that we would appreciate the music. He didn’t actually know that he was sending it to a record label at the time but we will forever be in his debt.
Sea of Bees is Julie Baenziger is a 25 year old singer, songwriter from Sacramento. We are delighted to have as part of the Heavenly family and we can’t wait to see her perform when she is over in the UK in September.
The video above of Julie performing in a grain silo is a great introduction to her vocal & features the track ‘The Woods’ which is on her debut 7” single which is now available to pre order through Rough Trade.
