Baby Weight
Producer based in the USA.
For over a decade, Washington, D.C. based artist Baby Weight (aka Cara Eser) has been stunning dancefloors. Known for her signature genre bending sound, dynamic DJ sets,
and outspoken advocacy, she has earned the respect of some of dance music’s biggest talents including Fatboy Slim, Walker & Royce, LP Giobbi, Justin Martin, Chris Lorenzo,
Idris Elba, Nicole Moudaber, VNSSA, and has performed at notable festivals including Coachella, Electric Daisy Carnival, SXSW, Hard Summer, Lightning in a Bottle, Firefly Music
Festival, and Dirtybird Campout. In 2017, Eser founded the label Chub Rub which they use to showcase emerging sounds from under the radar artists across the house music spectrum. Under her direction, Chub Rub has amassed a cult following curated around quirkiness, community, and diversity. In 2019, her debut album ‘Phases’ peaked in multiple Top 10 charts on Beatport and spawned an equally as popular remix album in 2020. In 2020, she publicly came out as transgender citing a need to address her transition as an artist as well as in her personal life. Later that year, their track “Rave Police” reached #1 paving the way to a wider audience. In 2021, Baby Weight was featured in Mixmag as part of their ongoing ‘Impact’ series along with a critically well received guest mix. 2022 was a breakout year for Baby Weight with multiple high profile releases including ‘House Princess’ which was featured in Calvin Klein’s Pride campaign. In 2023, she was named by DJ Mag and The Blessed Madonna as an “artist to watch” leading to a nomination for “Breakthrough DJ of the Year (North America).” This momentum continued with ‘Slay 4 Me’ on He.She.They garnering heavy support from BBC Radio 1, Defected, Ministry of Sound, and a guest mix on Future Dance with Sarah Story. In 2024, her releases ‘Inner Voice’ and ‘For U’ broke new ground for her sonically before culminating in a buzzworthy set at Coachella that year.
