[Verse]
Hello, hello
Can you hear me?
Can anybody hear me?
Hello
It ain't nothing but a brand name
Nothing but a brand name
I got brothers, I don't need no friends
Nothing but a brand name
Nothing but a brand name

American singer/songwriter Rayland Baxter is an artist whose music is at once mystic and down to earth, focused on the ebb and flow of human relations while wrapped in simple but evocative melodies and sung in a voice that reflects the mysteries of life that are the stuff of his songs.

By the summer of 2010, Baxter had settled in Nashville, and began playing local showcases and open-mike nights; his first EP, The Miscalculation of Song, appeared a few months later.

Baxter’s first album, Feathers & FishHooks, which featured extensive instrumental work by his father, Bucky Baxter, was released by an independent label in 2012, and by the end of the year he had signed with the artist-friendly ATO Records label, which quickly reissued his work. Baxter supported the album with touring, including road dates opening for the Civil Wars and Grace Potter & the Nocturnals. When not touring, he made his home in a ramshackle house in Nashville he shared with several friends and slept on a screened-in porch.
