World Cafe Playlist for 09/21/2026
Beabadoobee joins host Raina Douris
The first time Beabadoobee was on the World Cafe, she was just 20 years old, and she performed her songs live from her own bedroom. Since then, she’s toured with Taylor Swift, worked with Rick Rubin, and now she’s on her fourth album, Pylon. On the next World Cafe, Beabadoobee reflects on how the changes she experienced in her early twenties shaped the new album, and she talks about what it was like being joined by some of her heroes on it, like Chino Moreno of Deftones.
Listen to the session here.
