Sweet Baboo's latest suggests comparison to any number of mellow fellows currently doing the rounds with an acoustic guitar.
Unashamedly wearing his heart on his sleeve, the lead single Sometimes offers straightforward love song balladry that surprises with strange woozy, almost orchestral, interludes. As the album rolls itself out, Sweet Baboo allows his eccentricity to shine, matching slightly oddball lyrics with ambitious Beatles-esque arrangements that could have been dreamt up by George Martin. While this comes together beautifully on whimsical cuts like Walking In The Rain and You Got Me Time Keeping, overall Sweet Baboo leans towards the saccharine and impossibly twee.
