“A fresh slice of graceful R&B” – Complex
“Soulful and sweet” – Notion
“She’s levelling up” – Capital Xtra
Rising R&B star Bea Anderson returns to deliver the enchanting sounds of Picture Perfect out now via all streaming platforms. This latest single is taken from her long-awaited EP The Classroom of Silence due later this year.
Produced by Bea & Jarom S’ua (Timbaland, Drake), Picture Perfect serves as a message of mindfulness, forgiveness & self-acceptance. Bea shares insight into her ability to liberate herself from the expectations of others, drawing from the raw and unfiltered sounds of 80s Soul along with electrifying riffs, and her signature silky smooth vocals.
Bea Shares: “Picture Perfect explores the overcoming of perfectionism and details some of my most valued changes in mindset. It explores self-forgiveness, self – perception but mostly self-acceptance. The song was birthed in a time of isolation. A transitional period where I began to question – what would I believe under the influence of no one?”
Picture Perfect follows the success of breathtaking singles Pieces & Mirror Mirror, which garnered the support of BBC Radio 1Xtra (track of the week and C-List), Spotify (New Music Friday, Fresh Finds) and support from Notion, Apple Music (New Music Daily, New in R&B, Breaking R&B), HUNGER and most recently COMPLEX, CLASH & COLORS.
Bea’s earliest experience of music came as a three-year-old when her Mum placed her in front of an audience and asked her to sing – it all unfolded from there. The Brit School graduate first discovered the depths of songwriting in her early teens and was quickly hooked. She found that making her own music was a way to bond her early experiences of Gospel with her passion for R&B groups like Destiny’s Child, Cherish and Boyz II Men. Drawing influence from artists such as H.E.R., Lauryn Hill and Solange, Bea’s sound is fresh, uncompromising and a welcome addition to the UK R&B scene.
