I spent that year living in a barn with the squirrels and the birds, on my own most of the time, and I discovered so much about music and how to create it, says the Tennessee-bred singer/songwriter. Instead of going into a studio with a producer for two weeks, I just waited for the record to build itself. Id get up and go outside, see a butterfly and connect that with some impulsive thought Id had three months ago, and suddenly a song Id been working on would make sense. Thats how the whole album came to be.The follow-up to 2018s critically acclaimed Wide Awake, If I Were a Butterfly finds Baxter co-producing alongside Tim OSullivan (Grace Potter, The Head and the Heart) and Kai Welch (Molly Tuttle, Sierra Hull), slowly piecing together the albums patchwork of lush psychedelia and Beatlesesque pop. In addition to working at Thunder Sound (the Kentucky studio he called home for months on end), Baxter recorded in California, Texas, Tennessee, and Washington, enlisting a remarkable lineup of musicians: Shakey Graves, Lennon Stella, several members of Cage the Elephant, Zac Cockrell of Alabama Shakes, Morning Teleportations Travis Goodwin, and legendary Motown drummer Miss Bobbye Hall, among many others. In an especially meaningful turn, two of the albums tracks feature the elegant pedal steel work of his father, Bucky Baxter (a musician who performed with Bob Dylan and who passed away in May 2020). Thanks to the extraordinary care and ingenuity behind its creation, If I Were a Butterfly arrives as a work of rarefied magic, capable of stirring up immense feeling while leaving the listener happily wonderstruck.
