Bitter’s kiss is primarily a vehicle for singer/songwriter Chloe Baker to showcase her talents.
Chloe grew up in a home filled with music, with a father who maintained a studio, a guitar collection and a band, and has been active in musical theater for years. Chloe currently attends an arts academy in New Jersey.
Chloe has been serious about writing music for around a year, and has worked with her father to record and produce her music over the past several months. The reception has been incredibly positive, with a lot of encouragement to take her efforts to the next level.
Chloe uses songwriting as a diary and a means of exploring her world. The track The Rope, for example, examines her feelings about the suicide of a distant cousin from a very religious background and the importance of staying true to one’s identity and finding something personally significant to make life meaningful. Another song, Too Far Too Fast, is a reaction to watching her older sister go off to college and noting how quickly time passes.
The magic of Bakers work though is that despite this sad and often strange world she still manages to find hope.
You can find out more about Bitter’s Kiss at her website, SoundCloud, and Facebook pages.
