At nine years old, the British singer born Bea Wheeler assured her sisters she’d grow up to be a pop star. Maybe manifestation works: “Born To Be Alive,” her first-ever single as Bea and her Business, went mega-viral upon its release in 2023. With two EPs of candid, writerly pop ballads under her belt (think Gen Z’s answer to Lily Allen or MARINA), the 20-year-old singer is making waves both on TikTok and IRL: She played her debut live show in Oslo to a crowd of 70,000, and spent fall 2024 headlining her first world tour.
