Cayley Thomas – Blue Jean Baby (Music Video)
Edmonton-born/Toronto-based singer-songwriter Cayley Thomas is releasing her new album How Else Can I Tell You? on May 1st. From the release is her second single “Blue Jean Baby”, a swift, yet tough-love love song.
Thomas explains, “‘Blue Jean Baby’ explores the pattern of feeling responsible for the emotions or actions of others at the expense of our own wellness. It’s like when you’re on an airplane and they tell you to put your oxygen mask on first before assisting other passengers.”
Hints of folk and Americana combine to sculpt out the song’s slow rocking rhythm, Thomas’ gentle, soft-pop vocals gradually build over the instrumentation.
The accompanying music video explores the song’s theme, as a couple struggles with a toxic imbalance, as Thomas’ protagonist character deals with a drunken boyfriend instead of taking care of herself.
