Having played guitar and piano as a young girl, she was moved to write her first song, "Remember The Day", after taking a road trip with a friend across the Alps to Genoa, via Strasbourg. She appeared in Wim Wenders' 1973 film Alice in the Cities, and her music also featured in Umarmungen und andere Sachen (1975), a German Jochen Richter film set in Bavaria about three romantically involved bank robbers. Baier opted not to pursue an acting or singing career, and moved to America where she concentrated on raising a family.
The songs that went on to make up her album Colour Green were home reel-to-reel tape recordings Baier had made in Germany between 1970 and 1973. Some thirty years later her son Robby compiled a CD from these recordings to give to family members as presents. He also gave a copy to Dinosaur Jr's J Mascis, who in turn passed it along to the Orange Twin label. Orange Twin released the album in February 2006. She is expected to release a second studio album. She performs the song "Let Us Know" in Wim Wenders' movie Palermo Shooting (2008).

Let us know
That the little things are
Little, and big ones big
Life is fragrant and brittle
A twig on the tree of knowing
It grows for the sake of growing
From the drunkenness of my trying
I think I'm home
My souls and my freedom of seeing
The one in the many fall
It knows without knowing
Let us know
That the little things are little
And big ones big
Have us see what is now
In the light of eternity
Let us be
You and me
Like writing on water, leaving no trees
Embracing the face of our dying
Into this brilliant space
It glows for the sake of glowing
Let us know
That the little things are little
And big ones big

This is the only new song we have from her, and she really didn't change. Still so beautiful

I think it's leaving no "trace", makes more sense and rhymes with space
Seba Stop Progre

What a melty voice! The female version of Leonard Cohen's voice for sure!
