Sweet Baboo - Ships
There’s an endearing sense of modesty to a line like “Daniel Johnston has hundreds of great tunes, and I’ve got six”, especially when it’s sung in the chorus of the first song of an 11-track album.»

'Ships', his fourth record is a concept album about the sea and was recorded with long time collaborator The Voluntary Butler Scheme earlier this year. A native of the North Wales countryside, Sweet Baboo aka Stephen Black is a single minded, idiosyncratic singer possessing an ear for sparkling melody and a gift for a deft lyrical turn - from darkly funny to piercingly tender, twinkling boastful to deliciously self-deprecating.
