Candy Apple Blue - Baby Blue (ft. Nick Bramlett)

Official Cover Art

Release date: April 15th, 2022

The song Baby Blue is really very special to us. Anyone who's ever identified as an underdog should be able to relate to it. It's one of the songs that we are most proud of as songwriters. It's an autobiographical work really. We poured our hearts into this composition.

If you like story songs, you are in for a real treat! It has a bit of a 1970s Motown backbeat. It's soulful and has a bit of a melancholy spirit, yet it's iced with hope. It's inspired by the great story songs of the past that we used to always hear on the radio when we were kids. Songs like Cher's Half-Breed, Helen Reddy's Angie Baby, Vicki Lawrence's The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia, and John Conlee's Friday Night Blues. People really don't write story songs anymore so we decided to do just that! 

Nick Bramlett delivers his most heartfelt lead vocal delivery to date and he's never sounded better! We also have on both electric and acoustic guitars the extraordinary Micah Blakeslee. The amazing Christina Sivavo and Carly Emerick are on backing vocals. Baby Blue was mixed and mastered by Math Bishop who always brings his A-game!
