YOU ARE NOW ENTERING BABYBOOM TOWN

About Me


Hi Folks,
Babyhead's unconventional approach tells you they aren't your average band. Like talented kids in a musical sweet shop they want to mix and match, sticking a dedicated horn section beside infectious heavy dub bass and ska across a hip-hop backbeat (and some funk-focused finesse). Then they'll spit out a layer of lyrical dexterity to improve the brew. Babyhead offer a unique sound with glittering showmanship and unadulterated energy. That's why this eight-piece band is rapidly generating a huge live following. (Bestival Program)2007 saw babyhead release their debut album ‘Babyboom Town’ on Cookie Cutter Records with press by Trailer and distribution by Kudos. Then followed a busy promotional tour with show at the YOYO club, London to the Riders palace, Laax Switzerland. Babyhead also got busy on the festival circuit, playing amongst others; Glastonbury’s Jazz World Stage, Bestival, The Glade and Beautiful days. To cap a fine year babyhead were invited to be part of the Madness show at the 02 arena.With a New single due for release in May and the second album in the pipe line 2008 is looking good for the babyhead boys!
