Australian artist Lemonade Baby shares new single ‘Airbnb’, showcasing a Jazzy-R&B/Neo-Soul groove that is so very easy to get into.
Last month Lemonade Baby announced he has a new mixtape/album in the works and gave us the first taste of what we can expect with a song called ‘Seeing Double’, which was a collaborative release with Ronnie Sinclair (aka Alistair Seawright from Safety Club).
“Airbnb is one of few songs that came together by accident. I was in a writing session with my friend Breanna Fielding and we were talking about life and what we had done the past week. She mentions that when she’s too tired from performing she’ll book an Airbnb so she doesn’t have to drive home. It also was a great excuse to not have to see anyone, she could just decompress.
We start jamming chords and start singing along. In amazement I said to her, “Your melody sounds “complicated/happy but a little bit sad in a weird way”. She then Replies saying that’s a perfect line, and somehow worked that into the lyrics. It was so easy to write we had the song finished in a few hours. I guess the lyrics focus on needing a safe space to breathe and be at peace, all thanks to an Airbnb. I’d always wanted to make a Jazz-R&B/Neo-Soul record, and I’m super excited to include this on my next album.” ~ Lemonade Baby
