With his single “Baby Books,” Michael Baker combines sit-back-and-appreciate vocals with a rhythm that conveys a sense of determined, steady forward movement. The song shows Baker’s comfortableness in the upper vocal range and masterfully adds what is likely a harmonica at 2:36 to increase the sonic beauty. When asked about “Baby Books,” Baker said:
“I wrote this track after a friend lost their battle to mental health. Mental health is something that has been so up and down in my own life and something that I find so difficult to talk about without wanting the ground to swallow me up whole. It's been so amazing to know that people everywhere are talking more about these things and that whoever you are there is a support network around you. This in turn has given me the strength to talk about it not just in song but in this very interview too.”
Michael Baker is from Brighton, UK, but is now based in London.
