BAUM reaches for dark-pop perfection on ‘Ungodly’

On BAUM’s new track “Hot Water,” she tells not one, but two lies. First of all, her “I’ve never done much at all” statement falls flat, especially following a successful SXSW run last month and her subsequent spotlight amongst other LGBTQ+ artists in Billboard. Secondly, BAUM isn’t “in” hot water — she is the hot water.

The L.A.-based dark pop singer released her EP Ungodly in March, but as we sit here today, there’s some bad news — BAUM was supposed to storm The Middle East Upstairs tonight (April 27) with Dagny, but a “whopping case of #tonsillitis” has pulled her from the bill.

While we await any sort of make-up date — maybe a headlining show is in short order, given the response to Ungodly over the past few weeks — we’ll just keep the EP on constant repeat. Our tip: Keep you ears peeled for the the shameless feminine authority of “This Body” and the R&B slink of “Dream Girl.”
