In a peaceful, illuminating dreamscape, “Crossover” brings you to the reverberant vibe of slow dance on a rooftop and driving past the natural landscape, liberating and full of love. Stemming from the Beat generation and hippie counterculture of the 60s, the theme of city folks escaping the city, searching for something more in life, is always an adventure of love and freedom. Time may have changed, the language of music may have been renewed a couple of times, but the searching continues.
“Crossover” evokes a nostalgic feeling at the same time moving forward in the history of sound. Reintroducing retro elements into the modern soundscape, blending raw experiences with mastery and perfection, David Baron has found the crossover in contrasts, channeling a unique color and vibration into his music. Fiano Glenn’s dreamful, stunning voice added the magic touch that brought Baron’s vision to life.a
Previously worked with The Lumineers, Lana Del Ray, Vance Joy, and Meghan Trainor, among others, David Baron is a record producer, film composer, arrange, and engineer located in Woodstock, NY. He first met Glenn at the Hoot Festival when the nine-year-old singer amazed him with her vocal performance.
“She had a magical sound,” Baron commented. The now 16-year-old singer has continued her musical career with various collaborations, including being the lead singer for Baron’s Whisperer album.
