New York trio Sunflower Bean — Julia Cumming (she/her), Nick Kivlen (he/him), and Jake Faber (she/they) — return with their first new material of 2021, the incredible new single “Baby Don’t Cry”, premiered by Radio 1’s Clara Amfo as the ‘Hottest Record In The World’. Written by the band, produced and mixed by UMO’s Jacob Portrait, co-engineered by Jake Faber and Portrait, and recorded between Electric Lady and Sunflower Bean Studios, “Baby Don’t Cry” is an exciting taste of what’s to come from Sunflower Bean in 2022.
The band says of the new song, “So many things in our lives are disposable. Content and news is consumed and discarded leaving us unfulfilled. ‘Baby Don’t Cry’ is about enjoying the real. The things right in front of us that give us meaning and how sometimes, even sad songs can give you that warm feeling of hope.”
Alongside the release, the band have announced new U.K. tour dates for next year, including a show at the Electric Ballroom in London, tickets available HERE.
