Recognizable by the passionate delivery of charismatic frontman Wes Leavins, Chicago's Brigitte Calls Me Baby find a sweet spot with a combination of romantic, '80s-inspired new wave and Elvis Presley-conjuring retro-rock. They made waves with 2023's Dave Cobb-produced This House Is Made of Corners, a debut EP that landed them on Dave Matthews' ATO label and which they expanded into their 11-song full-length debut, 2024's The Future Is Our Way Out.
