Robin Bacior's "Man Before Me" out now!

Yesterday marked the release of Robin Bacior's new single! "Man Before Me" is the A side and it's backed with "Headless Sheep" via Consonants & Vowels Recordings. It's the follow up to the quietly released but widely loved ep, Aimed For Night, that came out last fall. The two songs show her songwriting and instrumentation growing beyond the constraints of acoustic folk into more intricate and diverse territory. "Man Before Me" premiered last week at RCRD LBL and is featured this week as "New and Noteworthy" across the iTunes store from Singer Songwriter, Alternative and listed in Indie on the front page of the music section. She just returned from her first time performing at SXSW and will celebrate the new single at Brooklyn's Union Hall on April 11th. May will see her and her collaborators travel to San Francisco to record her debut full length with John Vanderslice in his Tiny Telephone studio!
What the press is saying:
"Her impressive vocals are front and center and benefit from the lack of distraction, and we are left with an elegant reminder of what it is to craft a song." RCRD LBL
“Lyrically minded and carefully constructed to rip out emotion.” – The Brooklyn Paper
"Does the indie-world need another alt-country/folk singer/songstress? Does Brooklyn? In the case of Robin Bacior, the answer is yes." - QRO Magazine
“There’s no shortage of folky coffeehouse ladies who strum guitars and tell tales of wow and woe, but Ms. Bacior has a toughness that is often lacking. She sounds strong, as if any depression or lost love that might inspire her to craft a tune might also incite her to crack her instrument right over your head should the situation call for it—and that is a little exciting, no?” – New York MetroMix
"Brooklyn’s Robin Bacior released the Raised For Night EP last Autumn and the resulting four songs are simply gorgeous." Lost At E Minor
"With a choir chiming in behind her like ghost of a bygone era, Robin Bacior sings a song of love, loss and change. The musicians backing her are top notch, and extra props must be given to the drummer for playing the spaces with such excellent tension. Bacior’s voice is effortlessly beautiful on this single from her “Aimed for Night” Superfan

QRO Magazine falls for Robin Bacior's latest EP...

"Does the indie-world need another alt-country/folk singer/songstress? Does Brooklyn? In the case of Robin Bacior, the answer is yes. With her moving debut EP Aimed For Night, the denizen of the Borough of Houses & Churches is both sweet and sad.
Opener "Familiar Road" has the right ingredients for today's alt-country/folk, with a twang and sway that is familiar, but no less powerful for it. Bacior strips to pluck and pretty for "Island", and goes lady-country la-la on "Tell the House", but Aimed finds its highpoint in its final track, "The Great Plane". Bare and sweet, "The Great Plane" still has just the right amount of heartbreak.
With only one woman and four songs, Bacior isn't reinventing the alt-country/folk wheel on Aimed For Night, but introducing herself, and does it well. Look for her to follow the path upward trod by Brooklynite belles such as Sharon Van Etten and others - and catch her before that at South-by-Southwest, or in her current string of Brooklyn dates, including a free residency at Pete's Candy Store."
