Today’s touring news follows the YouTube premiere of Baker Boy’s breezy new single My Mind featuring G Flip. “We stepped away from really polished, fashion and aesthetic focused clips into something really natural and fun but still touching on what the song is about with those cute moments,” Baker Boy said. “I’m really stoked with how well this turned out!”
Baker Boy’s 14-track debut album Gela will include My Mind, as well as previously released singles Meditjin feat. JessB, Move, Cool As Hell and Ride feat. Yirrmal.

His list of career accolades include six ARIA nominations; six wins at the National Indigenous Music Awards; an Order of Australia medal; the 2019 Young Australian of the Year award; multiple placements in Triple j’s Hottest 100 and over 40 million streams of his music world-wide.
