Innsbruck, Tirol, Austria, May 25th, 2021 – Pink skies and black water. “Lighter” seeks beauty in all of life’s facets. It respects the pain, celebrates the joy, its basses vibrate through our veins, and the voice leaves us wondering. Is she happy, is she sad, is it actually possible to differentiate? The album is a collection of songs that have been written in several past years. Moving away from the melancholic singer-songwriter corner, BAIBA has not lost her longing but has learned to use it as her empowerment. The ultimate strength of being.

Exchanging acoustic guitar with vibrant synths, piano chords with massive drum beats. She wants to experiment, yet has long-lasting love for pop music and it shows.

Listening to the album feels like witnessing a small breakthrough. A cheeky, yet humble ‘good girl gone bad’ scenario. No apologies left to express. All the tracks on “Lighter” were written and produced by BAIBA, partly recorded in her bedroom. For the final touches for the songs she got some support from her long-time collaborators and Innsbruck (Austria) based producers Christoph Holzknecht (CHRS) and Benjamin Leingartner aka DIGITAL YOUTH who also produced the “Alternative Version” of the title track “Lighter”.
