The latest single from British singer-songwriter Alice Auer is the fantastic ‘Baby, Cry’. It blends her jazz roots with relatable pop songwriting and a swaying rhythm section, resulting in something blissfully airy and focused. Her empathetic and worldly voice delivers lyrics that offer catharsis for the complexities of relationships. “This song was written for my dad who grew up in between care before being adopted, and because of this difficult childhood, he rarely shows any sad emotions,” she explains. “The song is meant to be an ode to any people who find it hard to let their emotions go.” Keep an eye out for her new EP, also called Baby Cry, when it releases on May 26th, 2023. -Dan Peeke
