Since starting Babehoven in Portland, Oregon in 2017, Maya Bon has shown herself to be a gifted heart-on-sleeve songwriter, using music to peel back the layers of her own experience—sometimes sad, sometimes surreal, always vividly rendered—to reveal universal emotional truths hidden in the most intimately personal of details. After a handful of self-released EPs and their label debut on Double Double Whammy with 2022’s ""Sunk"" EP, Babehoven’s first full-length album ""Light Moving Time"" is due October 28 2022. ""Light Moving Time"" is emblematic of Babehoven’s wide range of dynamics, and each of those sounds are taken further. You can hear the pared-down languor of ""Yellow Has a Pretty Good Reputation"", the smoldering guitars of ""Demonstrating Visible Difference of Height"", the peculiar charm of ""Nastavi, Calliope"", and the soft tenderness of ""Sunk"". Alternating seamlessly acrossstyles, “Circles” and “Philadelphia” have the wispy ambient calm of a Liz Harris track, “I’m On Your Team” falls somewhere between a flowy country song and an ‘80s power ballad, “Marion” contains the plucky indie-folk warmth of Hovvdy, and “Stand It” and “Pockets” are coated with My Bloody Valentine’s wobbly shoegaze. But in contrast with those EPs, these tracks utilize Bon’s voice with greater emotional impact than ever before.
