Music News - Louis Baker announces new single "Rainbow", coming this Friday, August 26th
22 August 2016 - 0 Comments
With a voice that conveys an awareness beyond
his years, Louis
Baker has emerged over the last few years as one of New
Zealand's most exciting up and coming artists.
This Friday, August
26th, the native Wellingtonian singer-songwriter will share his
new single Rainbow,
accompanied by a one-shot video, conceived by Baker himself and put together by
director Ben Hawker and
cinematographer Simon
Godsiff. Today he reveals the stunning artwork for the
forthcoming single.
Crafted in New Zealand and recorded at Red
Bull Studios London with The
Nextmen’s Brad
Ellis, this new single is
the first taste of a new chapter in Baker's growing songbook. Led by a
heartrending, delicate and soulful vocal performance of which Baker is well
known for, backed by a stirring arrangement of acoustic guitar, piano,
keyboards and gentle percussion, it is a provoking touch of what is yet to
come.

“I keep coming back to certain concepts and
themes, and I’ve always been inspired by all the colours between black and
white. Colour encapsulates love for me. The song is very vulnerable and
authentic to who I am – and you only get that kind of emotion through real,
lived-in experience.” Baker explains.
As a first look at a brand new batch of songs, this multihued first offering is
an intimate, expressive sign of things to come. And, as Louis explains, the
heart and soul of his rich, resonant songwriting continues to burn bright as he
readies the next chapter of his musical journey.
“I feel like my essence and my approach to making music hasn’t changed at all.
It’s always been about honesty and being true to your art. I want my music to
evoke something in the listener, some kind of emotion or feeling. At the core
of it, it’s always been about trying to get through to someone – to express and
share what is human.”
