Captivating artist Mike Baretz is a Jersey kid, whose hometown wasn’t known for its support of the arts. Despite this, he gravitated toward music. As a kid, he taught himself guitar by ear and learned the basics of recording in a bedroom. Upping his self-taught game, Baretz studied with Juilliard’s Justin Dello Joio and gained new wisdom in writing, recording, and performing music. This drive allowed Baretz to hone a sound using articulate artistry to create catchy melodies everybody can relate to. He’s captured hearts with his intricate instrumentality and lucid lyricism as seen in his past collaborations. He’s broken through those hometown barriers and is using music to bring people together, a community for those who may not have one at home. With the release of his newest single “Wrong”, he presents a sensational sound that will certainly grasp your attention. Beginning with dreamy instrumentation leading onto his sweet and luscious vocals he completes the track fully. Explaining the track a bit further it’s about the initial reflection after his relationship ended; really feeling at the short end of the stick. When you’re in the heat of the relationship, all the warning signs can be visible to everyone except you. And even when people tell you their thoughts, it can become easy to shrug them off. And when things fell apart, it felt like the lyrics- not getting back what you’ve given and felt that sense of companionship that was bestowed to you disappearing. To the vocals and production, this single will definitely have you vibing and possibly relating to the lyrics. It would be just great for a late-night drive or alone within your thoughts. Go stream “Wrong” and check out his discography which is filled with amazing music.
