Steve Baker

Acoustic/Folk/Roots Solo

Iâ??m amazed by what goes on! Who isnâ??t? Wisdom, mixed perhaps with a touch of cynicism, has produced a few crunchy songs which Iâ??m slowly learning not to sing in polite company. And thereâ??s also a tiny swag of worldly songs about strong women, ice-cream and death.

My day job is as a dentist. My passion is music, and Iâ??m one of those terrible faux musicians blighted by a nascent love of clever musical electronics and Gypsy Jazz. God I wish I could play that stuff well!
