MP3 Geoff Baker - Know the Rain Here
12 MP3 Songs
FOLK: Modern Folk, POP: Folky Pop
Details:
"On his breakthrough release, ''Patriot Acts,'' New Jersey singer-songwriter Geoff Baker brought a razor-sharp wit and good-natured humor as well as a touching empathy to the folk protest song arena, elevating his songs above the standard rhetoric. These qualities permeate Geoff''s latest collection of songs, ''Know the Rain Here,'' which applies this same flawless songwriting to a wide range of areas of the human experience."
--review of Jan. 19, 2005, show in Bloomington, IN, at https://www.tradebit.com
"a rare combination of effortless fingerpicking, mesmerizing vocals, deep lyrics and beautiful melodies"
"particularly impressive for its ability to capture his live energy and elaborate on it with delicately balanced and expansive orchestrations"
"nothing short of unforgettable"
--Jeff Lisciandrello, Upstage Magazine (NJ)
**************
Geoff was born in Inglewood, California, borrowed a guitar at the age of 14 and never gave it back. "Know the Rain Here," his first full-length album, has been likened to the work of Jeff Tweedy (Wilco, Uncle Tupelo), Nick Drake and Gary Jules, while Geoff''s energetic, emotional live performances, sometimes lasting 4 hours, have drawn comparisons to Bruce Springsteen and Jeff Buckley. Once again based in Los Angeles, Geoff plays regularly in NYC, L.A., New Jersey, and Europe.
