Brigitte Calls Me Baby
Brigitte Calls Me Baby is an American alternative rock band formed in Chicago, Illinois, in 2022. The band consists of lead singer Wes Leavins, guitarist Jack Fluegel, bassist Devin Wessels, and drummer Jeremy Benshish. The name comes from Leavins' teenaged pen-pal correspondence with French actress Brigitte Bardot.
Prior to the release of any of their music, Brigitte Calls Me Baby had their first gig in 2022, opening for Irish rock band Inhaler, and later opening for English rock band Muse. Following their performance at the Austin South by Southwest music festival in 2023, they caught the attention of ATO records, who signed them and oversaw the release of their EP This House is Made of Corners. In 2024, Brigitte Calls Me Baby released their debut album The Future is Our Way Out.
Brigitte Calls Me Baby's musical style was described by SPIN as "a smattering of upbeat new wave-style synths, jangly post-punk guitar and tight, punchy arrangements".
