We had the pleasure of interviewing Balu Brigada over Zoom video!
Balu Brigada are an alt-pop duo from New Zealand, made up of multi-instrumentalist writer/producer brothers, Henry and Pierre Beasley. With a pop sensibility that still sits a little left of center, their tracks prioritize prominent bass-hooks and punchy drums with natural quirk and relatability. Showcasing their ability to skate genres they pull from a broad range of influences, from the Strokes to the Gorrillaz to Tame Impala, whilst creating a unique future-facing sound of their own.
Key to Balu Brigada’s magic is their inimitable brotherly bond, with their joy for - and gentle ribbing of - each other coming through in everything they do. Their musical conversation mirrors their real-life communication, as dual-vocalists, multi-instrumentalists, songwriters, and co-producers, finishing each other’s sentences both in everyday discourse and in song.
Their debut EP ‘I Should Be Home’, was released September 23 via Atlantic Records / Warner Music Australia. Embodied by the overarching metaphor of a night out, ‘I Should Be Home’ details the blurry experiences of growing into your own skin as a twenty-something year old - revisiting messy break-ups and drunken epiphanies, recalling both the sugar rush of the party’s start, and the sobering realization the fun has worn off.
