Australian psych-rock trio Babe Rainbow has dropped their latest single, “Like Cleopatra,” a sun-drenched, funk-infused pop track. This release comes ahead of their newly announced album, Slipper imp and shakaerator, set to release on April 4th via King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard’s p(doom) Records.
“Like Cleopatra” pairs 80s-inspired grooves with ethereal backing vocals by Camille Jansen, capturing the band’s signature blend of laid-back energy and psychedelic charm. Reflecting on the track, the band shared that it was inspired by dreamy recording sessions near a natural spring, paying homage to their idyllic Gold Coast origins.
The forthcoming album promises to be their most “homegrown” yet, recorded in a warehouse on a banana farm with producer Timon Martin. Rooted in free-flowing jams and vibrant experimentation, the project embodies the relaxed, colorful essence of Babe Rainbow.
