Julien Baker

In May 2016, Julien Baker performed a hauntingly beautiful cover of Jawbreaker's 'Accident Prone' at Le Musée in Brussels. This recording date falls right around the time when she was riding the wave of acclaim from her debut album, ealer, which was released just a year prior. Her raw and introspective style had begun to strike a chord with audiences and critics alike, establishing her presence in the indie music scene. Interestingly, this cover showcases not just her artistic range but also the influences of punk rock that seep into her otherwise introspective folk sound. It’s a moment where Baker reveals her versatility, effortlessly blending her heartfelt lyricism with the energy of 90s punk. Her capacity to reinterpret music and make it her own resonates well with fans and underscores her burgeoning career at that time.
