‘Mothers By July’ is a candid portrayal of queer love and emotional vulnerability that has resonated particularly strongly within FLINTA and wider LGBTQ+ communities, where Bekah’s music is being embraced as both representation and release. Produced by Kristofer Harris, the track is a tender indie-pop cut that pairs dreamy, intimate vocals with delicate strings and gentle guitar lines.

Speaking of the track, Bekah says, “This song is about coming to terms with the fact that I can never get accidentally pregnant with my girlfriend. It sounds like such an obvious thing to be aware of, but I don’t think it really hit me til one day we were talking about what our kid would look like, and we both felt a little pit in our stomachs that we would never know. And my girlfriend half jokingly said, “write a song about that”, so I did!

“When we are raised with binaries and traditional futures in mind, sometimes as queer people, as full of love and acceptance our lives can be, we also have to grieve not getting some things we were “promised” or were expected when we were younger. And it’s okay to feel sad about that, while simultaneously knowing our lives are full and enough regardless.”

Here is Bekah’s own inspiration behind creating ‘Four Walls’; “this one is my ode to all the days depression + anxiety made it feel impossible to get out of bed & a little thank you to those who carry me through the worst and are the best this silly life has to offer. It will get lighter, even when it feels like the end of the fucking world xx”

Born in Los Angeles but raised in Exeter, Bekah combines silky vocals and guitar led arrangements to create an exciting brand of woozy indie. The first track taken from their upcoming EP ‘What You Wanted’ is a deeply personal one – inspired by the rejection Bekah felt after coming out as queer.

Speaking on the release, they state: “I wrote this song about coming out as queer and the rejection I faced in response and coming to terms with the fact that I can’t change their minds.”
