Baiman made her way to Nashville at 18 with the dream of being a professional fiddle player and has since released two solo records and an EP, alongside work with Kacey Musgraves, Kevin Morby, and Molly Tuttle.
Since her first solo release in 2017 she’s carved out a niche as an increasingly important, distinctive, and political solo artist. Her latest self-produced album, ‘Common Nation Of Sorrow’, is her finest to date. It’s certainly her most outspoken and hard-hitting, exploring the underbelly of American capitalism, and the individual and communal devastation it manifests, particularly on her own generation. It’s a tribute to her ability as a writer, singer, and producer that it does so to such powerfully moving effect.

Rachel Baiman’s emotionally raw, plaintive vocals create an exquisite, expansive soundscape that allows her lyrics to permeate our souls, calling us to consider the delicate balance of the human condition, to mourn it, to celebrate it.”
