Babygirl are breathing effervescent life into a new definition of pop music. The Toronto band–comprised of Kiki Frances and Cameron Bright–is placing a refreshing spin on youth nostalgia with a contemporary edge, thanks to fuzzy guitar riffs and sincere lyrics. Their forthcoming EP Be Still My Heart, set for an April 14, 2023 release via Sandlot/AWAL, is a five-track collection that details love’s ebbs and flows. 
 Be Still My Heart is the follow-up to 2021’s Losers Weepers. The band’s releases—a playful mix of Death Cab For Cutie-inspired conversational lyricism and Taylor Swift-inspired use of catchy language atypical for Top 40 pop, with a touch of Shakespearean drama—were steadily met with critical acclaim from platforms like Noisey, Rolling Stone, PAPER, and NYLON. In 2020, they signed with Sandlot Records via a chance internet encounter with GRAMMY-nominated songwriter Jacob “JKash” Hindlin. The band spent the pandemic-induced downtime honing their songwriting and unofficially forming their mission statement: “bittersweet pop rock.”
