Julien Baker Turn Out the Lights

"On LIGHTS she rallies piano and strings to accentuate the payoff....The final result is a balm to soothe well-trodden emotional frequencies."
"There's an elegance to her music that wasn't there before -- a sudden bright piano riff over deep guitar; a harrowing, shouted acapella -- that feels like a coming of age."
Paste (magazine) - "On the title track, Baker sings of the persistence of self-doubt and the primal nature of self-reliance as a simple guitar line undulates into a crunchy, cathartic chorus."
Clash (Magazine) - "There's a distinct ethereal quality to Baker's vocals and delicately plucked minor guitar chords that help to paint a raw and intimate portrait of young love and adolescence."
