Singer-songwriter Beetlebug is cultivating an online community, welcomingly beckoning newcomers into a world rich with wistful melodies, gentle acoustics and heart-warming tales of self-discovery, growing up, youthful nostalgia and navigating the world with an open mind and an open heart. The first seeds of that following have already sprouted, resulting in 100,000+followers at YouTube, 15 million streams at Spotify, and shows with the likes of Lovejoy, Henry Moodie and The Vamps. Now Beetlebug shares the new single ‘until the end’ – listen here – as she prepares to release her debut EP in 2024.
Beetlebug brings some comforting warmth to the autumn months with ‘until the end’. It’s a song of quiet, delicate beauty as Beetlebug weaves her sweetly sincere vocal melodies around gentle ukulele as she imagines witnessing “a lonely pilgrim looking for their merry band.” If you’re new to Beetlebug’s artistry, this provides a perfectly introductory snapshot to her spellbinding charms, and if you’re already a devotee, you can readily hear the progression she has made since her previous release, 2022’s ‘the lepidopterist’. Speaking of which, after a break of almost 18 months without a release, fans have shared their excitement for new music from Beetlebug with one describing an early teaser of the song as “beautiful, it sounds like a warm spring morning.”
Beetlebug – also known as Auri – says, “‘until the end’ is one of the first songs i wrote at the initial conception of this EP, as its shape was first forming – a joyous, penultimate closure that begins the conclusion with a lust and love for simply existing; a shard of warmth after the melancholy, that lifts gently into the final song of the project.”
Beetlebug will celebrate the release of ‘until the end’ by playing her first ever London headline show at The Courtyard Theatre on December 9th – limited tickets are available HERE.
