Beabadoobee Lands Her First UK Number 1 with ‘This Is How Tomorrow Moves’

Beabadoobee’s acclaimed third studio album This Is How Tomorrow Moves has become her first record to reach number 1 on the UK Official Album Chart, debuting at the top spot yesterday. This Is How Tomorrow Moves follows her Top 10 albums Fake It Flowers (which reached number 8) in 2020 and 2022’s Beatopia (#4).

his Is How Tomorrow Moves features the singles ‘Ever Seen’, ‘Take A Bite’, ‘Coming Home’ and new single ‘Beaches,’ and stands as a testament to Beabadoobee’s artistic evolution and resilience. It captures a journey through confidence and introspection, with themes of self-acceptance and personal growth woven throughout, in parts a love letter to her younger self and all that she’s been through.

On This Is How Tomorrow Moves, Beabadoobee is comfortable in taking the reins of this next stage of her life. “I love this album,” she says, simply, “I feel like it’s helped me so much more than anything else has in navigating this new era, this new understanding of where I’m at. I guess it’s about becoming a woman.

“I think I’m more aware of my actions in these songs,” Bea adds, “In my previous records, I would consistently sing about my reaction towards other people's doings, like a blame game. But in this record, it's accepting that there's an inevitability of my fault in there too. Whether it's childhood trauma or relationship issues, it takes two to tango in everything.”

Last night Bea celebrated reaching the top spot with an intimate show at London’s XOYO, ahead of opening for Mitski at London’s All Points East festival this weekend. Next week she headlines the Radio 1 stage at Reading and Leeds, before heading to North America for an extensive headline tour and returning to the UK for her biggest headline run to date, culminating at London’s Alexandra Palace. Tickets are on sale now, see below for full list of dates.
