Beabadoobee, the Marías debut hazy duet: All I did was dream of you

Beabadoobee has returned with new music: a collaborative single called “All I Did Was Dream of You.” The track — her first original release since the 2024 Rick Rubin-produced album This Is How Tomorrow Moves — arrives alongside a cinematic video shot in Vilnius, Lithuania.

The single features a guest appearance from the Los Angeles duo the Marías, who were nominees for Best New Artist at this year’s Grammy Awards. The visual was directed by Jake Erland and the creative collective Aboveground and was filmed on location in Lithuania’s capital. The clip has been released online and accompanies the new audio.

What’s new and why it matters now

This release breaks a quiet spell in Beabadoobee’s original output since last year’s record produced by Rick Rubin, and it signals ongoing collaboration with peers who have recently gained major industry attention. For listeners tracking developments in alternative pop and indie songwriting, the pairing with the Marías refreshes her profile while tying her to artists who reached broader audiences through awards-season visibility.

Earlier this month, Bea Kristi recorded a cover of Elliott Smith’s “Say Yes” for War Child’s Help(2) benefit compilation, demonstrating an active presence in charitable music projects as well as new original material.

Musically, the new single fits into Beabadoobee’s recent trajectory of intimate, guitar-forward pop, while the Marías’ participation adds a cross-genre connection to a group that has seen increased mainstream attention. The video’s Eastern European setting gives the release a distinct visual mood that contrasts with the UK-born artist’s earlier Brooklyn and London-facing imagery.

Fans and casual listeners alike will likely treat this as a sign that Beabadoobee is entering a busy creative phase: original music, high-profile collaborations, and charity contributions have all appeared within weeks of each other. Expect further releases or live activity to follow as the artist maintains momentum.
