Former Hey Rosetta! leader Tim Baker is back with a new solo single. The video for "Lucky Few" is out now, and Baker has announced some live dates for the coming months.
The Newfoundland musician said in a statement about the single, "This is a song that grew directly from these years of social isolation. It's about missing people, and missing the power of connection, shared emotion and music. The rhythm section and I performed it live off the floor (the second floor of the Fogo Island Inn to be exact — an incredible piano they have there, among a lot of other incredibles), and I later added violins and a little choir of friends at home."
The accompanying video, directed by Baker along with Jamie Miller, is a single-shot performance clip of Baker and his band.
There's currently no word about a new full-length, but a press release calls this "the debut single and video," so presumably this is part of some sort of a larger project. This is Baker's first new material since 2019's Forever Overhead and its various singles and EPs.
