“Don’t Leave Me Baby” is the standout track on Reed Turchi’s new EP, “Wild Coyote Sessions.” This slow-burning blues swamp, with its low-key sounds, evokes memories that linger for a long time. “Don’t Leave Me Baby” is a song that honors and combines modern sounds with field recordings to create a sound that is both old and new.
Turchi’s subtle guitar work complements the soft tension between desire and resolve in his voice, which he begins to convey in the first notes. The song’s quiet, swampy sounds make it feel more like a private conversation than a performance. This lets the emotional weight of each line breathe. It’s the blues in its most basic form, raw, full of feeling, and very human.
“Don’t Leave Me, Baby” is Turchi’s way of honoring the roots of a long-standing musical tradition while also forging his own unique sound. People who want music that evokes a strong emotional response will love this song and the rest of the “Wild Coyote Sessions” EP, which takes you on a deep dive into the blues of today.
