Austin, TX’s Bee Blackwell, creates 90s-influenced alternative rock with deeply personal themes and soaring, majestic vocals. She documents her self-exploration in a way that speaks to anyone who’s had a coming-of-age experience or is going through one of their own. Having played in rock bands through high school and college, Bee decided to start posting covers of her favorite emo and grunge songs online in 2023. After numerous viral moments on the internet, she began releasing cathartic and heartfelt songs that have captivated her growing audience.
She’s kept busy over the past year, making her SXSW debut in Austin, TX, this past March, along with a handful of energetic shows around Texas. With a few months of free time, Bee couldn’t help but create and self-produce her latest body of work, Nine Lives, serving as a personal diary entry, exposing her struggles, emotional hardships, and life goals. Each track is backed by clear and atmospheric guitar hooks, relaxed and steady rhythmic percussions creating a smooth, calming groove, and a little bit of 2000s emo greatness. The EP sees Bee at her most introspective and daring, taking creative risks while maintaining vulnerability.
