Inspired by soul-legends Prince and D’Angelo, Dutch recording artist Baer Traa is making a record in isolation, playing most instruments and producing by himself while calling on his bandmates to add some extra flavor. Analog instruments, tight grooves, and a burning desire to captain every part of the production process drive the singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist to turn his musical ideas into a creative reality.
Traa delivers on his voyage of blue-eyed soul with the funky number “It’s In The Water.” The track gels effortlessly with smooth vocals and rhythmic instrumentation that blends the worlds of Mayer Hawthrone, Washed Out, and Hall & Oates: 80’s pop, chillwave, and soul for y’all….
“It’s in the Water” is a soulful, funky tune about finding peace in solitude and letting go of one’s worries and sins,” says Traa.
