Long Bio

It’s impossible to ignore the geographical influences that shape the sound and songs of East Arkansas Native Barrett Baber. The feeling of Memphis Blues and River Delta Soul live in the melodies and phrases that so often punctuate the tunes he crafts. Instantly becoming known for his passionate performances that connected with audiences nationwide, Baber and family moved to Nashville in 2016 after a top 3 finish on NBC’s The Voice. Baber quickly established himself as a rising star in the Nashville Songwriting Industry by scoring multiple songwriting credits including a Certified Gold single with the song “Nothing On You” recorded by Warner Artist Cody Johnson. Baber has since registered his second Cody Johnson cut with the song titled “God Bless The Boy” (Cori’s Song). In 2021 Barrett signed a co-publishing deal with Music row staple Sea Gayle Music and legendary Songwriter Bobby Pinson. “I knew when I heard Barrett sing that he was a special talent. His songs really make you feel something, and that’s not easy to find these days” says Pinson. Often only armed with his Acoustic guitar Baber shines in the small listening rooms of Nashville and beyond with his knack for spinning a great story that pairs perfect with the original song that accompanies it. Audience members will laugh. Might cry. And leave after having been invited to catch a glimpse into the life and mind of a dream chasing troubadour.
