From Nashville's Jessie Baylin - "Sparkle Shoelaces" - first single from "Strawberry Wind" Deluxe Edition, set for release May 31

"Sparkle Shoelaces," the first single from the Deluxe Edition of Jessie Baylin's Strawberry Wind, is out today!

A song of inspiration and hope, "Sparkle Shoelaces explores how one small change – a change as tiny as adding sparkly shoelaces to a pair of old shoes – can improve your mindset and your view of yourself. As Baylin aptly explains, "It's like that old Jerome Kern-Dorothy Fields song: 'pick myself up, dust myself off, start all over again.'"

Strawberry Wind, due out May 31, 2024, is an album that delivers on a promise Baylin made with herself: to create an honest album for kids and parents alike.

With four new tracks added (three on the vinyl edition), Strawberry Wind delightfully expresses a childlike sensibility woven through lyrical themes of dream life, supermoons, and summertime vibes, along with some gentle doses of reality. Baylin’s trademark dream-pop vocals shine through, her inherent musicality is present, and her '70s Laurel Canyon/Brill Building writing prowess is front-and-center. Baylin says, “I wanted this album to feel magical and remind people of the child inside of all of us that is filled with a sense of wonder, pure joy, and hope.”

“What makes Strawberry Wind different is that it approaches children's music in a way that trusts kids to be more mature than we give them credit for, and lets adults be more whimsical than usually permitted.” – Rolling Stone

When Strawberry Wind was originally released as an Amazon exclusive in 2018, Garden & Gun magazine wrote of Jessie Baylin, "She's created her own heavenly pop universe, crafting songs that are lush and dreamy." Strawberry Wind, now with four new tracks added (three on the vinyl edition), and available for the first time on all major platforms, is an enhancement we can all celebrate and rejoice. These stellar recordings are for children and adults, at any age.
