BIOGRAPHY, by NME’s Andrew Trendell
“I lived in my van for two and a half years to pay for the making of my first record,” casually laughs singer-songwriter Michael Baker. “I moved into the van after a typical period of heartache. I had nowhere to go, but it was pretty good actually!” 

From this, you can gather a lot about the Anglo-French troubadour. Mainly, he takes nothing for granted and lives for his music.  

Spending his childhood near Brighton (where he went to the same school as Rag N’ Bone Man), Michael got his first guitar aged eight after seeing Oasis live and needing to learn ‘Wonderwall’. In his teens, the songs soon started to flow. It wasn’t long before the purity of his voice, the direct rawness of his writing and the sheer scope of his sound found him regular gigs and a devoted fanbase – one that only grew bigger and more in love with the release of his magnificent debut album Dust & Bone. 

A soaring collection of heart-wrenching indie-folk and cinematic sounds, Dust & Bone was recorded with Massive Attack collaborator Dan Brown, and was a staggering first showcase of Baker’s ambition and soulful style. “I’m really proud of the songwriting on that record,” he admits. “I was in such a bad place in my life when I made it, but it got such a great response from the people who heard it.”

Early sessions for Salt started when Baker hit the studio with Dan Brown and Oliver Baldwin, who had recently finished making Aldous Harding’s acclaimed album Party with PJ Harvey collaborator John Parish. While promising Michael says ‘’It felt like I needed more time to experiment than we had scheduled in.” So Baker headed back to record and produce the album with long-time friend Ed Martin. 

After discovering that his childhood home would be empty for a few weeks while his parents were in the process of moving away. He went in and stripped everything away, begged and borrowed all the equipment he needed, crammed the band in, drank a lot of wine, got a little stoned and naturally just flowed through the album – playing all day and all night. The recordings were so impressive, that Baldwin agreed to mix the record at Real World Studios and gave the songs a whole new dimension (as well as inviting Jack White’s pedal steel player Maggie Björklund to play on the album too). 
“I absolutely love artists like Cat Stevens and Bon Iver,” says Baker. Salt is a record that maps Baker’s journey through darkness and vulnerability to something a lot more hopeful. 
Among the key tracks that show Baker’s road to recovery, ‘Baby Books’ was inspired by being in close proximity to someone taking their own life – and totally changing the way he saw the world. Single ‘They Look Just Like They Know’ also deals with how “the mind can be a deadly place” and “feeling trapped in the prison of your own vision”. He’s looking for the sunrise on the horizon, too. Baker’s personal favourite ‘Claire’ celebrates the “the beauty of space in a relationship” and the escapist ecstasy of ‘One Good Damn’ has won over scores of new fans with its feel-good magnetism. 

Salt is a towering accomplishment that will win hearts with its adept handling of love, loss and hope, and there’s more to come. For now though, you’re about to get to know the real Michael Baker. “I feel like I have too much of a personal relationship with anyone who says they like my music,” concludes Baker. “I’ve been getting letters and messages from people saying that my songs have got them through a very hard time, and I don’t know how to reply to them other than as if I’d known them my whole life. That’s the way that I would do it. I hope that my music gives them as much as it’s given me.”

📝 Lyrics:

I’m still here 
Femke Weidema
Wally Wilson 

Production: Femke Weidema
Mix master: Joshua Reynolds 

She was gone, when the winter came 
but I heard her voice, when the snowbirds sang 
Don’t you cry one single tear 
Cause there is no way, I’ll just disappear

I’m still here 
In the leafs that are dancing by your window
In the spaces of the silence when the wind blows 
how it all works, is a wonder only god knows 

I’m still here 

I found, no rest, in all the dreams that i was chasing 
And I lost myself, in the schemes and expectation
the road ahead is never clear
But there is no way, I’ll  disappear

I’m still here 
dancing barefoot draped in flowers at my wedding 
singing to the stars when the sun is setting 
even when I think the world  is forgetting

I’m still here 

Between the comfort of the sheets
too much to drink too little sleep
Till I can’t hide no more from me 
Cause I’m still here 

The annoying little sister to my brother 
A blue eyed photo in the wallet of my mother 
i’m the one that got away to some old lover

I’m still here 

She was gone, when the winter came

Lyrics: 

We Have To Discover

Like a cabin in the middle of nowhere
In the void you’re my bottle of air
You’ve been the one and only
That took care
Saw the pain we share

You gave me your hand and you led me
To a whole world, you were the key
After years spent in prison
My heart beats
And my chest feels free

You taught me that I’ve been right
When my shadow in the mirror said that I was wrong
And even in the darkest night
You give me a reason to be strong

I can let it go, let it pass by
No more wonderin’ why
Oh we have to discover
The storm’s eye
To find the wide blue sky

You taught me that I’ve been right
When my shadow in the mirror said that I was wrong
And even in the darkest night
You give me a reason to be strong

You taught me that I’ve been right
When my shadow in the mirror said that I was wrong
And even in the darkest night
You give me a reason to be strong

Even in the darkest night
You give me a reason to be strong
