Song Review/ Indie : Blake Baker’s ‘We Night Owls’
Blake Baker is a singer-songwriter and indie artist. His soundscapes have a way of suspending you in an idea. Like in his latest release, ‘We Night Owls’, he romanticises the notions of night, connecting it with contemplative moods and soft pop. There’s something so deeply human about the theme of the song. With twinkling melodies and a luminous resonance, he sweetens the ideas and the mood.
Stretching this mood generously across an expansive space, he immerses the listener in it. Baker’s vocals are a treat. It is vulnerable, expressive, with real time feeling and emotion. Feels both grounding and light as it swirls around the magic of the night. He captures a personal relationship that he shares with that time of day and the wakefulness that it brings to his life and thoughts. With falsettos and ethereal harmonies, he takes the night time to a soft crescendo. Listen Now!
