With her soulful voice and impressive musical skills, she captivates audiences with her heartfelt lyrics and captivating melodies. Born and raised in Illinois, Rachel's passion for music led her to pursue a career in the industry. She has released several critically acclaimed albums and has toured extensively, sharing her unique blend of folk, bluegrass, and country music with fans around the world.
Known for her thought-provoking songwriting and powerful performances, Rachel draws inspiration from personal experiences as well as social issues. Her songs tackle topics such as love, loss, inequality, and environmental concerns.

Rachel Baiman's 'Thanksgiving' EP is a collection of music to inspire an introspective holiday spirit. The songs center around themes of Indigenous Rights, home and homelessness, and love in hard times. Baiman called upon her superb live touring band (Cy Winstanley, Shelby Means) in addition to special collaboratorsincluding flatpicking guitar master Molly Tuttle, who features prominently on a spirited John Hartford cover, "Madison Tennesseeto bring these thoughtful songs to life. 'Thanksgiving' allows Baiman space to stretch out stylistically and marks an intriguing followup to her celebrated full-length debut 'Shame'. Baiman moves with ease from bluegrass, to folk, to old-time and country sensibilities over the course of these four tracks. Her adept lyricism is again on full display, as she sheds new light on the complex, bittersweet feelings of both hardship and hope that often intertwine around the holiday season.
