Hometown: Hanover, New Hampshire
Genre: Pop
Why We're Excited: Performing as Sir Babygirl, Kelsie Hogue writes cheerful, wildly overdriven pop songs in which queerness is more than mere subtext. Using the Sir Babygirl persona as a means of processing and overcoming self-sabotage and past traumas, Hogue leans hard into frenetic movement, bold expressions of self-actualization and joy, traces of past dabbling in stand-up comedy and an ongoing effort to harness their loud, confident inner theater kid.
