Notes

**Orange/Black Marble Vinyl**

Sabine McCalla creates her own version of multi-cultural American roots music with Don’t Call Me Baby. Produced by Sam Doores of the Deslondes, it’s a debut album that crosses borderlines, pulling everything from Brazilian samba to southern soul to British rock & roll into its orbit. Sabine filters those influences through the lens of her Haitian heritage and her music community of New Orleans, with more than a dozen local musicians contributing to the album’s diverse sound. From the Caribbean grooves of “Anything Without You” to the raw rock & roll of “Louisiana Hound Dog,” Don’t Call Me Baby celebrates not only a longtime artist whose first EP earned her a slot at the Newport Folk Festival, but an entire musical community, as well. Already a celebrated figure in New Orleans’ Americana scene, Sabine McCalla reaches beyond with Don’t Call Me Baby, building a bridge between the world-spanning sounds that have captured her attention.
