Rob Baird says growing up in Memphis, a city suffused with music, it was impossible not to pick up the guitar as a kid. And later, pilfering his sister’s record collection, Tom Petty and band’s “don’t bore us get to the chorus” approach to song structure, melded with Baird’s affinity for darker-themed lyrics of Texas writers like Chris Knight and other legends. On his debut Blue-Eyed Angels out August 31st (Carnival Recording Company), the 23 year-old brings those influences to bear, most notably on the title track,a tale about the emptiness of the world’s oldest profession, 
made lighter with a chorus that jingles. 

Rob Baird performs "Blue Eyed Angels" at Saxon Pub in Austin Texas, February 2011.
