Brian Baker – Belly: 13th Floor New Song Of The Day
New Zealand singer-songwriter BRIAN BAKER celebrates the release of his latest single, Belly, produced and recorded at his Kaipara based studio facility.
Here’s the blurb with more:
Northland guitarist/producer Brian Baker has delivered a Kiwi rock track that knocks you down and lifts you up. Think Foo Fighters, think Shihad – energetic rock, guitars that shred and a chorus your Gran can whistle. “Belly” is a message from a dark place – All this will change!
From Brian; “I was listening to a podcast about Joseph Cambell’s The Hero’s Journey and was really feeling that mid winter greyness. I was struck with the idea of isolation and focus, where the hero is stuck in a dark place and has only their calling to focus on and lead them out. Plus the knowledge that all things are constantly changing. Hence a message from the belly of the whale – all this will change. So a song of hope from a dark place that we all go through at some stage or another. I also felt the need to rock out a bit so ended up with this fast paced, guitar driven thing. Hope you enjoy!”

“Belly” is released through AAA Records on August 11th 2023, just when Brian performs a series of shows at The Bay Of Island Jazz and Blues Festival. There’ll be a full length vinyl LP released in November to coincide with a North Island tour.
