BabyJake announces debut album

The Sun Wakes Up Earlier Now coming Sept 3rd

Singer, songwriter, and producer BabyJake announces his highly anticipated debut album, The Sun Wakes Up Earlier Now, is set for release on September 3rd via Republic Records. The gold-certified artist has released “Watching” in celebration.

The Florida-born and Los Angeles-based singer, songwriter, and producer promises he’s “bringing back rock ‘n’ roll” with the project. However, this isn’t your parents’ rock ‘n’ roll, it’s got all of the style, swagger, and spirit of the Seventies, but it’s lit up by a fresh fire. The 11-track genre-blurring album was recorded over the past year and a half in Los Angeles, and BabyJake co-wrote and co-produced the songs with various collaborators, including Bipolar Sunshine, Lizzy McAlpine, and Linda Perry, to name a few.

“For me, the album represents crossing into a world of not giving a fuck what anybody thinks and showing I’m a human being,” BabyJake shares. “I’m going to dress how I want to dress, act how I want to act, and make what I want to make. If it works, great. Either way, I’m going to keep trucking along.”

To commemorate the release, BabyJake will perform his first-ever headlining shows next month in New York at Baby’s All Right on September 9th and Los Angeles at Moroccan Lounge on September 15th. Not to mention, he will also perform at select festivals this fall, including Napa Valley’s BottleRock on September 3rd and Tampa’s Gasparilla on October 1st.

Earlier this summer, BabyJake released a handful of singles from the album, including “Do I Fit In Your Shoes?,” “Funny Thing About Love” with Bipolar Sunshine, and “Daddy’s Coming Home,” which have been praised by Billboard, V Magazine, TMRW Magazine, American Songwriter, and many more.

The Sun Wakes Up Earlier Now follows BabyJake’s 2020 debut EP Don’t Give Me Problems, Give Me Wine. The seven-song genre-bending EP features his breakout single “Head In The Clouds.” Earlier this year, BabyJake teamed up with Louis The Child on “Somewhere Else.”
