Nov 7, 2017These are songs that you feel more than listen to. Everyone has encountered some sort of mental illness, addiction or crisis of faith, whether in your life or another’s. Not only does Baker prove that you’re not alone, but she finds a way to make it better.
-
Oct 24, 2017Baker is careful not to glorify life's darkest moments, and certainly doesn't on Turn Out the Lights. Rather, her candid portrayal of pain is a rare and beautiful gift.
-
Oct 30, 2017What elevates Turn Out The Lights is that it’s sensory as well as earnest, personally destabilising while artfully assured; it oscillates in the spilling synaesthesia of panic attacks, the dizzying clarity of epiphany, the paralysing futility of depressive episodes, the unfathomable locus of being okay.

UncutOct 23, 2017Lights may be bleak, but that only makes the moments of catharsis all the more illuminating. [Dec 2017, p.22]
-
Oct 27, 2017Turn Out The Lights is a powerful listen, teaching you to live with your failures and fears, and to move from coping with them to actually loving them.
-
Nov 6, 2017A record bursting with artistic emotion and vulnerable resilience.
-
Oct 23, 2017Baker doesn’t shy away from the weight of depression, but depending on your emotional state, the album is either cathartic or overbearing.
