Urgent 90s alternative rock with a positive message.

The Cranberries are widely known for their unique blend of alternative rock and traditional Celtic melodies, but their heavy-hitters are often overlooked. This track has always been special to us because of it's positive, anti-drug message. In honor of the late Dolores O'Riordan, the time seems right to finally release our own take on this masterpiece.

Urgent 90s alternative rock with a positive message.

If you ever see someone who's down, don't walk on by as if you never even noticed them. Just lend a hand and ask to talk... tomorrow it just might be you. If you ever see someone who's hurting, don't drop your head and say, "That's someone else's job." Act the friend and show you care, cause sometimes people just need to know somebody's there. We're waiting for courtesy. If you ever see someone in trouble, think about the times when you've been hurting too. Don't drive past fast to cut them off, cause everyone you meet is fighting for themselves. We're all waiting for courtesy.

A one-track experience, designed to encourage the listener to pause their busy life and indulge for 18 minutes, to listen to the story and take the message with them.

For several years now, digital sales and streaming services have endangered the traditional album format. The creative process, stories and messages delivered by the artists are being lost and forgotten. Albums used to mean something. People used to have a close relationship with an album, putting it on and listening from start to finish, much like reading your favorite book. The new business model and “single song” popularity is killing these relationships.

Steven Baker’s newest album, Elephants That Paint, is an attempt to rekindle those nostalgic feelings; A one-track experience, designed to encourage the listener to pause their busy life and indulge for 18 minutes, to listen to the story and take the message with them.

Steven has been writing and producing music independently for over twenty years with various bands and solo projects. With his most recent effort, The Snowflake Babies, he is experimenting with various, unique release formats in order to build a buzz in a sea of facsimiles.

“When an artist spends a great deal of time and effort to release an album that is the perfect ordering of songs to tell their story, and then the consumer just listens to one or two of their favorite tracks, it is the same as if someone gave them a copy of the newest Stephen King book to check out… and they only read chapter 8, or 12.” – SB

Steven asks that you please take a few short moments to listen to the newest release. Four brand new songs, together as something unique. No need to skip around, no danger of distraction while driving. These songs are in the perfect order for you already.

Remember the way you once listened to music.

Positive pop rock with influences from the 90s.

It is said that everyone will have to be reborn. This is what happened to Steven Baker in 2005. At that point, he made a promise to never doubt the existence and power of God again. Strange things happened that year to help guide Steven back onto a positive path and the Snowflake Babies are his gift back to the Lord. Realizations that he had been given his musical talents for a purpose had set in, and Steven figured that he had spent enough time making music for himself. It was now time to write new material - new songs that could possibly help other people, and spread the word of God in the process. Staying true to his roots, Steven hit the studio to make new rock music that chronicled some of the wondrous happenings that helped him rekindle his faith. This music comes to you in hopes that it may help you too.
