Biography

“Sometimes I’d wander silently, preoccupied and afraid to dive into the deep waters. I wouldn’t consider myself to be shy, but I tend to limit oversharing, not being able to find the right words. I realize that others would perhaps perceive me as heavy-hearted and I guess that makes sense- as a young girl I felt life was pretty frightening and for a large part I am still that same girl." A trio of increasingly accomplished EP’s released between 2015 and 2020 have seen HEBE fluently adventuring new styles and reaching listeners around the globe. Her intimate live performance of ‘Cards On The Table’ for UK Mahogany Sessions in 2020 ,next to the likes of Rhye, Birdy and Billie Eilish as well as the placement of latest single ‘Afraid of Being Hurt’ in US Series ‘Couples Therapy’ as theme song for their final episode, show the international approval of her music. Her new empowering indie-pop album opens with ‘Wait For Daylight’, a song about the night and the start of an anxious, dark phase. The Album, planned for release in November 2022, concludes with Lifted The Weight, a song written in the early mornings in her home in Amsterdam where she often found inspiration after lying awake for several hours which at times gave her a feeling of power and self sustainability. “HEBE isn’t ashamed of expressing her emotion.” -MUSIC WEEK “She straddles the line between the uplifting and the melancholy.” -EARMILK "A free-thinking spirit who was driven from a young age." -CLASH MAGAZINE
