Lee Baggett
Outsider folk mystic Lee Baggett has crafted a new album of psych-country jams with Anyway, set for release on September 30th via Perpetual Doom. A West Coast journeyman of many years and sometimes guitarist for Little Wings, Lee Baggett began a new chapter of his eclectic and varied songwriting career with the 2021 release of Just A Minute, and he's continuing his experimental streak with this latest full-length offering.
Delving deeper into Anyway finds some familiar sounds, but there's decidedly more intimacy hidden in the crevices of his words and hooks. Throughout, Baggett uses his refined storytelling skills to share his relatable fears and coping mechanisms, his river-like path to unexpectedly finding love, and his musings on an ever-changing world, amongst other experiences. His conversational disposition, folk-styled lyricism, and emotive sonic backdrops make for an immersive listening experience.
