r&b, neo soul
Brooklyn duo Bathe, composed of Devin Hobdy and Corey Smith-West, crafts a unique "surf R&B" sound, blending hypnotic indie soul with psychedelic guitar riffs and ambient textures. Drawing inspiration from their Cuban and Afro-Caribbean backgrounds, their music is both radiant and introspective, offering a lush, flowing sense of ease. With acclaimed releases like "Bicoastal," Bathe has become a distinctive voice in contemporary R&B.
