Lerocque’s latest release, "Sweet Baby" is about parenthood, and it’s written with a raw, emotional honesty that makes it feel instantly recognizable. The song is framed by the bittersweet experience of watching a child grow, balancing pride, tenderness and that unmistakable fear of time moving too fast. The warm pop sensibilities give the subject lots of warmth without overwhelming the emotion. The title sounds sentimental, but in this case sentimentality is justified. Some things, Lerocque knows, need to be said without a filter. Sweet Baby” closes with a soft promise – no matter where life takes us, there will be a safe home to come back to.
