BAIO released double single “Endless Me, Endlessly” + “What Do You Say When I’m Not There?”
Ahead of his third album release, Baio returns with two new mega singles “Endless Me, Endlessly” and “What Do You Say When I’m Not There?”. The two tracks compliment each other, exploring the duality of the enduring power of connection that many of us desire.
“Endless Me, Endlessly” is a simple song about being there in every possible capacity for someone else. Through hard times just as much as good times. In a way, it’s a bit of a fantasy - a single person cannot be everything to someone else. Lately, though, I have found fantasy to be a thing of comfort.
“What Do You Say When I’m Not There?” is the polar opposite emotionally. It’s an ode to insecurity and the fact that you can never truly know what is going on in someone else’s mind. With this song I tried to strike a pointed contrast between melancholy lyrics and an upbeat, sunny energy.
Having embarked on his solo journey of the release of the EP “Sunburn” in 2012, BAIO has become infused with the stylistic influences of both the electronic and dance music genre, so as to highlight Chris’ DJ talents. Continuing to show off his musical repertoire after the release of two studio albums “The Names” (2015) and “Man of the World” (2017), these two EP’s serve to provide an insight into the musical stylings to come ahead of the album set for release in early 2021.
BAIO is the solo project of Chris Baio, who has been the bassist in American rock band Vampire Weekend since 2006. The band has seen great success receiving 2 GRAMMY awards and was the first act to have three No. 1 albums debut on the Billboard Charts.
