MY BABY are set to take their brand of voodoo
infused psychedelic blues to the UK this month. The new string of dates -
kicking off in Brighton - will be the band's first major headline tour of the
UK, following on from the Dutch band’s previous travels to the UK in 2015, in
support of Seasick Steve and appearing at Glastonbury. MY BABY have
covered 16 countries, 4 continents and 40000+ miles since their conception in
2012 and they show no signs of slowing down. “We aim to let our audience
dance and fall into our voodoo trance.” Cato muses, before Joost chimes in,
“It’s a cosmic vehicle, driven by the urge of travelling time, space and
emotion. We love to share, we share to love.”
MY BABY’s
new single ‘Remedy II’ is a newly re-recorded alternative version of the track
originally found on their debut album Shamanaid.
Its stomping, sultry groove evokes the likes of The Allman Brothers, Delaney
& Bonnie, The Black Crowes, The Soundtrack Of Our Lives, Dungen and Peter
Green-era Fleetwood Mac. The band say, "We
wrote Remedy together with our producer after listening to lots of African
funk, Sahara desert blues and psychedelic trance. You can trace those
influences. We do try to emulate much of that and set out to create a song that
celebrates the healing power of music. It's a re-occurring theme across all
cultures and is something that continues to inspire us. The idea behind the
song also references, and is inspired by shamanism as shamans sing repetitive
trance inducing melodies in rituals in order to heal the afflicted. A search
for redemption after a troublesome past and having faced adversity in your
life. An abusive situation. A lost or unanswered love. A remedy is found in a
melody"
