Look no further, because babybaby_explores has served up a unique and experimental album titled “Food Near Me, Weather Tomorrow” that might just be the sonic dish you’ve been craving.
Hailing from the clam chowder suburbia outside of Providence, RI, babybaby_explores is a trio composed of Lids B-day (effected vox & sampler), sam m-h (electric guitar), and Ramona Cano-Daly (drum machines). This album, officially released in 2023, marks their foray into the music scene with a collection of 10 tracks born from spontaneous and improvisational writing sessions. Recorded over just two days with Seth Manchester at Machines with Magnets, “Food Near Me, Weather Tomorrow” captures the raw energy and playful sparring of these decade-long high school best friends.
The album is a delightful blend of alternative, art-rock, dance-pop, indie rock, and noise-pop, creating a sound that is both genuinely avant-garde and incredibly fun. Tracks like “Pants” and “Twiddle,” which even have official music videos, showcase the band’s quirky and energetic style. The music erupts with a sense of joyful chaos, feeling like a happening you can’t help but get stuck on. It’s an experience designed to recreate and share the enjoyable, almost joke-like moments the band members themselves cherish.
