Details

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. Having already been shortlisted for the Welsh Music Prize in 2011 for his third album I'm A Dancer/Songs About Sleeping, Black's evolution as a songwriter and musician is still very much in motion with the new album Ships, a concept album about the sea. Managed by Moshi Moshi Records, he has also worked with an ever-growing array of musicians including Slow Club, The Pictish Trail and Gruff Rhys, and will be playing at SXSW this year.
