Frances Baker and the nostalgic bedroom psychedelic indie R&B of "Hair Turns Grey"











"will stay together 'till our hair turns grey"


The sounds that singer-songwriter, producer Frances Baker infuses into the R&B indie psych trip charmer, "Hair Turns Grey", are so evocative, spinning out images in your brain that she will inspire other songwriters and producers. It is no wonder that she is influenced by the likes of Tyler - the Creator, Erykah Badu and Aretha Franklin. From the cinematic ambience at the beginning to the deep neo-soul groove bed, funky sweet guitar lines and shifting tones, stabs of wonky sounds as a framework for Baker's aloof bedroom dreamy vocal style is brilliant. The ambient sounds, upfront vox that pop in surprisingly give it all both a current experimental feeling and 70's dream theater tone. It is a delicious thing serving up romantic visions.
