Categorizing an artist like Baby Dee is akin to cat herding. As soon as you think you’ve got it figured out everything falls apart in one glorious outburst.

Less than a decade and a few side-show gigs ago, Baby Dee made her way back home to Cleveland. There she met up with producers Bonnie Prince Billy and Matt Sweeney, who urged Dee away from her trademark harp and towards the piano for her acclaimed album, Safe Inside the Day. The resulting songs burrow into the hard terrain of Dee's Cleveland childhood and then reflect on the unusual twists and turns of her adult life. In that process, she manages to grow a kind of sinewy, deceptively simple poetry that matches her fragile emotional core with bursts of toughness, joy and artistic fearlessness.
