Selections: Baio

Welcome to Selections – our weekly series where we offer artists we love total freedom to create a Spotify playlist from any music they want. Reliable – but unpredictable – listening from those who know.

As he prepares to unveil a new solo record on Glassnote, Vampire Weekend bassist Chris Baio (who releases solo work as Baio) has picked out 15 tracks covering 1960s Memphis soul, 1970s funk, 1980s alt-rock and a number of equally compelling destinations in between. Enjoy.

Baio’s sophomore solo LP, Man Of The World is out 30 June via Glassnote. Listen to his latest single, DANGEROUE ANAMAL here.
