(The girls' mothers are best friends, who also both grew up in Greenwich Village and still live a few minutes from each other.) Heather recalls Emma's childhood home as being more like a menagerie. On "Karma" from their self-titled May 2015 EP, it achieves the kind of mystical, undulating power of Grace Slick's.Īfter that initial third-grade meeting, they remember hanging out for the first time at Emma's apartment. Heather's voice, smooth and bluesy, also seems partly like something from another era. Together the girls perform as Beau, playing folk-inflected instrumentals overlaid with plaintive, heartfelt lyrics. Both in flat ankle boots, they look like a perfect blend of old Greenwich Village and present-day Manhattan. Heather is wearing a sheer paisley shirt by the brand with voluminous gathered sleeves, and Emma explains that her wide-collared vintage dress (with mismatched glass buttons) is something she found on a recent weekend in Massachusetts. When we meet in Brooklyn, they had just returned from Paris, where they played a fashion week event for Chloé. And their looks have become more similar, too. Now 21 and 20, Heather and Emma both have slightly wild cascading hair, the kind you see in footage from the original Woodstock.
