Lost And Lonesome are thrilled to welcome Melbourne five-piece Baby Blue to the fold for the release of their debut album Of My Window, due out on April 12, 2024.
Treading a sinuous path through 60s guitars and dreamy psychedelia, first single 'It's a Match' delves into the murky realms of extramarital entanglements and dealing with the impossible feelings of falling for someone who is already in a happy relationship.
On the album's second single 'Human Race', lead singer and songwriter Rhea Caldwell – generally fed up with being a human – laments their existence in a world that is inherently broken. “I wanna feel like there are no walls or colour schemes / I wanna feel like there is no evil but I know that is just a dream”.
Caldwell performs with an ease few can claim to possess. Having cut their teeth as the lead guitarist of Michael Beach and as bassist for Gena Rose Bruce, Caldwell’s songwriting taps into 60s surf rock with a sprinkling of Americana and a healthy serve of indie pop.
The result is a charming and considered concoction that’s been likened to that of Kim Deal fronting the Velvet Underground. Baby Blue’s discography of single and EP releases traverses themes of friendship, unrequited love, queer romance and the courage it takes to live an authentic life.
The highly anticipated full-length album represents the next step in songwriting and production for Caldwell and Baby Blue.
Recorded and mixed by guitarist Jesse Williams (Girlatones, Darren Hanlon, Leah Senior), the album came together over several weekends at Jesse and Leah’s home in Anglesea. The album explores the ebbs and flows of striving for self-improvement, the joys and pitfalls of casual romance, and trying to stay positive in an increasingly challenging world.
