‘One of Wales’s finest modern songwriters His music is charming and flecked with magic. The Guardian October 2022’

Sweet Baboo is the alter ego of North Walian musician and songwriter Stephen Black. His career has spanned over 2 decades and has seen him release 7 albums to date to critical acclaim.

His latest album ‘The Wreckage’ was released in January 2023 on his own Amazing Tapes from Canton Label to glowing reviews.

“You can hear how tenderly it’s been shepherded.”
★★★★ Mojo

“Sly humour but the conviction of a sombre-faced balladeer”
8/10 Uncut

“If OMD wrote songs about inept gardeners rather than Joan of Arc”
★★★★ Shindig!

One of ‘music’s underappreciated heroes’ (Record Collector) his live shows are profoundly entertaining, full of catchy hooks, melodies and delight.

‘Beautifully judged (electronic) psych-pop record that hums with warmth’
Uncut 2017 Wild Imagination (Moshi Moshi Records)

“With a blend of humility and affection, Stephen Black, [is] a honey-voiced man with a goal of becoming the Harry Nilsson of Snowdonia.’
The Times on 2015 The Boombox Ballads (Moshi Moshi Records)
