Baeden Faint has just released “A Whole Lot More,” a powerful and uplifting anthem for rising up when mental health issues take their toll. They’re themes that hit home for Baeden, who’s battled his own mental health issues and seen friends lose their fight.
“I was struggling, feeling isolated from friends and family” Baeden recalled of writing the song. “I tracked back home for a bit of a birthday bash to get my head straight and to see my friends, but sadly woke up the night after to find out that one of my mates had lost the battle himself.”
He wrote it with a melancholy tone in mind, but it shifted once producer Garth Porter got involved. “Garth saw it as a more hopeful and uplifting song, and so the music steered in that direction,” he said.
Baeden will bring his message and some great tunes to towns in regional and rural NSW at the following shows:
11 October 2024 – MusicNSW Outback Tour @ Wilcannia Golf Club, Barkindji Country/Wilcannia
