"The classiest crooner" Les Inrocks
After the release of Mr Maserati, a best-of compilation spanning his 20-year career in 2021, Baxter is back in 2023 with his 8th full-length album: I Thought I Was Better Than You. Produced by Paul White, known for his work with Charli XCX and Danny Brown, the album was co-written with British singers Eska and JGrrey, in addition to Madeleine Hart. Classy keyboards, addictive basslines, catchy drum machines, a disillusioned spoken-word type voice, female backing vocals, and R&B influences: there's no doubt, you're listening to Baxter Dury. Full of humor and self-deprecation, the son of the famous Ian Dury has been developing a rich discography for twenty years, as changeable as the British sky.
