Introducing : supermodel*
There’s a special kind of confidence in not trying to be cool, and Beanie — the 24-year-old brain behind supermodel* — has turned that philosophy into a surprisingly addictive debut statement. Inspired by early Talking Heads doing absolutely nothing until it somehow became iconic, supermodel* operates in a blissful state of anti-intent. No grand lore, no mood boards, no “this record explores…” press-release nonsense. Just instinct, taste, and a healthy disregard for expectations.
