Brave Baby is an indie rock band from Charleston, South Carolina.
Their debut album Forty Bells, which was released last month on the Hearts & Plugs label, centres on the long-lost-but-never-forgotten feelings discovered in childhood and early encounters with love. Vocally it brings to mind the arresting urgency and honesty found in the voice of Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon. It is backed by solid, propulsive timekeeping and some downright infectious guitar work.
This track, Lakeside Trust is the third single to be released from the record. It is a prime toe-tapping, head-bobbing example of aforesaid infection, and makes us want to check out the two singles that preceded this one, and the whole album, forthwith.
