1) BAKER (BAKER YA MAK… Read Full Bio ↴There are multiple artists who use this name:
1) BAKER (BAKER YA MAKER & BAKER PHONK) is a phonk rapper and producer part of Devilish Trio from Nashville, Tennessee. Part of DOOMSHOP RECORDS.
2) baker (also part of baker & kisk) is a successful VOCALOID producer, often working with 初音ミク. Recently he has been supporting other authors, rather than uploading his own original VOCALOID works. As a co-producer or arranger of many hit songs, he is still in an important position.
3) BAKER was born and raised in Manhattan and has been singing and performing since childhood. Currently living and recording on both coasts, he has always been a fan of pop, even before he planned on making music himself.
Despite his participation in several choirs, accappella groups, and musicals, BAKER’s real musical education came from Z100 radio and listening to everyone from Anthony Kiedis and Madonna to Sting and Chris Martin from a young age. And, after living in different cities over the years such as London, Los Angeles, and Florence, BAKER’s musical tastes have only broadened and his influences quite varied, offering diversified, uptempo pop music that blends everything from techno and trip-hop to big pop ballads and R&B. He’s currently a senior at Harvard.
BAKER began recording in August of 2007 and has already attracted attention for his strong voice and keen pop sensibility. In fact, his career as a solo artist began almost by accident. While living in LA, he found himself going out every night in Hollywood and met his first producer while chatting with DJs at Teddy’s just talking about music. That’s when his Nirvana cover, ‘Heart Shaped Box’, was recorded. The track—blending a hard rock aesthetic with driving dance beats—was met with widespread enthusiasm and acclaim. BAKER’s strong voice, oscillating between baritone and tenor, excited many producers and other musicians. Since then, BAKER has cowritten and/or produced every track since.
And there’s more to come. BAKER continues to write and record music as more and more fans discover him. So stay tuned as his ascent into the pop music landscape continues…
4) Baker (Boston, MA)
Formed in the musical hotbed that is Steve Lord's basement, there was only one direction this band was headed, and that was straight into the hearts and minds of music enthusiasts.
Blessed with a melodic cacophony that veers away from the standard, formulaic rock song, they drive straight at you with an unabashed zealousness that makes you want to dance and break things at the same time. In the midst of this tornado is Conan Skyrme, James Tracy, Andy Casey, Steve Lord, and Nicole Boudreau.
When Baker aren't busy playing shows they can usually be found in a cozy, decrepit practice space concocting a mad symphony of energy and sonic beauty, much to the delight of their ever-growing fan base.
With a much anticipated debut album nearing completion (due out later this year), their wide array of influences and high-energy live performances has both critics and fans alike raving. The buzz surrounding this band at the moment is simply infectious.

Baker Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But once I find it you know, I'll be back again
Back tomorrow night
Back tomorrow
Back tomorrow
Let go
I should let go
'cause I can't leave you behind
'cause you echo
You echo
'cause you echo in my mind
Beat it, beat it, I wish you'd stop repeatin'
'cause I can tell you're breathing
but I can't be with-
just another reason
That i've got to stop dreaming
but i can't
like you wanna bring me down or bring me i don't know
and i don't want to make a scene or break nothing but
You make me lose my mind
But once I find it you know, I'll be back again
Back tomorrow night
Back tomorrow
Back tomorrow
Let go
I should let go
But I can't go
'cause I can't leave you behind
'cause you echo
You echo
'cause you echo in my mind
Let go
L-let go
Let go in my mind
Leaver, i believe her
Liar, dirty speaker
But you're not a believer
And I can't either
You send me into fever
I feel it even deeper but I can't
Why you wanna bring me down?
Or bring me, I don't know
And I don't want to make a scene or break nothing but
You make me lose my mind
But once I find it you know, I'll be back again
Back tomorrow night
Back tomorrow
Back tomorrow
Let go
I should let go
But I can't go
'cause I can't leave you behind
'cause you echo
You echo
'cause you echo in my mind
Your audio, your audio

Baker's song "Echo" tells the story of a tumultuous relationship that the singer cannot let go of. She keeps finding herself coming back to this person who makes her lose her mind, but once she finds her sanity, she ends up returning to them. The repetition of the phrase "back tomorrow," emphasizes her inability to fully detach herself from this person.
The chorus serves as the heart of the song as she sings, "Let go, I should let go, but I can't go 'cause I can't leave you behind, 'cause you echo." The word "echo" serves a metaphorical purpose and refers to the remnants this person leaves in her mind, heart, and soul even after they are not together. The phrase "you echo" suggests that the person's actions, words, and presence resonate within her.
Moreover, in the verses, the singer speaks about the back-and-forth nature of their relationship, how she wishes this person would stop repeating the same mistakes but finds herself unable to stop thinking about them. Baker's delivery of the lyrics is emotional and powerful, perfectly capturing the singer's struggle of letting go of someone she knows is not good for her.
