LTD METALLIC BLUE VINYL LP via WINSPEAR.

"Barrie Lindsay is the type of artist who is driven by precise visions of how music should sound. However, the 32-year old, soft-spoken, obsessive producer can be cerebral to a fault, prone to intellectualizing her emotions and self-consciously camouflaging herself in her songs.

On Barbara, Lindsay's first ever self-produced album, and second under the moniker Barrie, she battled these self-censoring, self-protective instincts. The result is a beautifully peculiar and quietly ambitious collection of synth-pop, art-pop, indie rock and folk songs that reflect a new willingness to let listeners into her world. Lindsay grew up tinkering with instruments in her bedroom in Ipswich, Massachusetts. "I've always craved big, layered sounds, " Lindsay says. After graduating from Wesleyan in 2012 with a degree in music, she formed her first band with her brother Jack Lindsay, a 5-piece group called Grammar. She spent her 20's quietly making music and working at a sculpture studio in Massachusetts until she was discovered on Soundcloud by a manager. He encouraged her to move to Brooklyn and introduced her to other musicians, with whom she formed a band. The first iteration of Barrie was a 5-piece group who released their debut album Happy To Be Here in 2019, earning buzzy press, TV syncs and new fans around the globe.

A month after Happy to Be Here's release, the band announced they'd parted ways and Lindsay reintroduced Barrie as a solo project. This decision coincided with two events that redefined Lindsay's life and shaped Barbara. In the summer of 2019, she met her now- wife, the musician Gabby Smith of Gabby's World, while they were on tour. Simultaneously, Lindsay's father learned that his lung cancer had worsened. In January of 2020, she moved home to Ipswich to spend time with family and began working on her album. Three months became nine, thanks to the pandemic. Lindsay wrote Barbara while quarantining with Smith in Maine, while her father was dying and while she was falling in love. "Barbara isn't an album specifically about grief or love. It's just an album where I let myself actually feel my emotions, " Lindsay says. "That was something I'd never done before in music."

Lindsay didn't listen to much music during the writing and recording of Barbara. And her genre-agnostic production makes classification difficult. She collected nearly a dozen instruments, including dulcimer, mandolin, clarinet, flute, cello, trumpet and her late grandmother's harp to create the varied soundscapes on Barbara. She delights in manipulating their sounds beyond recognition, stretching them into vast, textured canvases. Lindsay welcomes old listeners into her new world with "Jersey". From there, she asks for listeners' attention with, "Frankie, ' a consideration of capitalism among skittering arpeggios. Political pop can be awkward, but Lindsay's is subtle and poignant, reflecting on Glen Campbell's classic "Wichita Lineman, " and Americans' attitudes towards labor. There's an insupressable gentleness to everything Lindsay creates. She attributes this quality to a sound sensitivity that she inherited from her father. "Even when I think that I'm doing something really crazy or really harsh, " she says. "I play it for someone and they're like 'Oh, so mellow.'" But Lindsay agitates the melodic loveliness of her songs, with erratic production, contrasting warm and cold timbres, cheerful and grim moods. She distills anxiety on the fever dream of "Basketball, " whispering into smoggy synths, pins-and-needles guitars, and a frenetic drum machine.

Similarly, her fantasy of a romantic but bloodied afternoon, "Quarry, " sounds eerie and aqueous, before erupting into a euphoric geyser of synth and drums. Lindsay wrote, recorded, engineered and produced Barbara back to front herself, aside from drums on a few songs from her brother and musician Ben Lumsdaine, and additional backup vocals from Smith. Initially, she was determined to create the album 100% solo. She ended up with the most intimate collaborator possible. "I don't know what this album would sound like if I hadn't met Gabby, " Lindsay says. "I made this album pretty much just for us." Smith executive produced Barbara, pushing Lindsay in her lyric-writing and providing feedback on production, arrangement, and creative direction. Despite the grief, personal and collective on Lindsay's mind while making Barbara, she often pauses to embrace joy. "Jenny, " is a simple, acoustic guitar ode to meeting Smith. On the dulcimer-fingerpicked "Bully, " she contrasts it's prettiness with the cheeky, conversational lines, "You keep on asking my favorite song by The Doors / And I don't care, I don't care about Star Wars." Lyrics used to be an obstacle for Lindsay, who considers herself first and foremost a producer.

In previous works, the already soft spoken artist would whisper her words and bury them in the mix. Barbara's lyrics reflect new care and prominence in the songs. Take the song, "Harp 2, " in which Lindsay recalls a piece of parental advice, "You said, 'You should try to be good, and if you can't be careful, '" before wandering off into a reverie: "Baby I'm Napoleon, carving out my own region / I'm nothing to an alien." Lindsay didn't initially plan to write about her father on Barbara. "Music is what I do for fun, to distract, to be happy, " she says. But reflecting on the kind of music she admires, she concluded: "Knowing that the song came from somewhere real is what makes it compelling. I had to figure out how to make the album meaningful to me, but also escapist."

Her answer was calling out both to her father and Smith on most songs on Barbara. "Those relationships bring up polar opposite emotions, but in the middle of the venn diagram is an overwhelming sense of desperation and intensity, " she says. Lindsay finds catharsis from this ambivalent desperation in the album's centerpiece, "Dig." The vocals for Barrie's last album were recorded in a studio apartment in Brooklyn, whispering so her neighbors wouldn't hear. You can hear her newfound boldness in "Dig, " as she wails the song's central refrain, giving herself over to emotion: "I can't get enough of you / Where did you come from?" The album's finale, "Bloodline, " is the delicate antidote to the cacophony of "Dig." The song starts out with a whisper over piano chords, as Lindsay reflects on the fragility of the body, as well as it's capacity for bravery: "You got a scrape on the thigh / On the shin dried a bloodline / You go where the hunter goes, but you don't have a gun." It crescendos into an orchestral whirlpool of bass, harpsichord and a synth that envelops the listener, before the song abruptly drops off. Lindsay made the intro to "Bloodline" years ago. But it wasn't until creating Barbara, she felt confident enough to complete it and put it out under her name. "I thought it was too heavy or too cerebral compared to what I've released, " she says. "These are the sounds I've had in my head for years. Now, I'm finally making them."

Stylish Slim Fit Suit, Great Quality and Budget-Friendly
I absolutely love this slim fit tuxedo suit for kids. The color looks great, the finish is impressive, and it honestly looks way more expensive than it is. I can’t wait for my son to be invited to the next party, wedding, or special event because this outfit is such a classy and adorable choice. The material feels good quality, the stitching is well done, and the overall design is sharp and stylish. It’s a perfect ring bearer outfit and looks very polished in photos. Full disclosure, I intentionally ordered a size up for my toddler, so it doesn’t fit him perfectly right now. But even with that mistake, I can tell the sizing is true to size, so I would recommend ordering your child’s actual size for the best slim fit look. Overall, this is an excellent, budget-friendly suit set that looks amazing and is perfect for special occasions.

linen suit
I love this linen suit! It runs true to size and made really well. The bowtie is easy to put on and adds the perfect touch of class to an already fancy suit. The material is light and airy on the suit. It wears well and can be worn for a casual outing or something more fancy like a wedding. This was chosen for a wedding on the beach and it captured the beach vibe perfectly. I would highly recommend this for anyone looking for something comfortable yet stylish for their little guy. For the quality of the outfit, this is priced way below my expectation.

This suit set is such a great find! It comes with everything you need—jacket, pants, shirt, tie, and bow tie—which makes getting a dressed-up look so easy. It's excellent quality for a suit in this price range. The linen fabric gives it a nice, lightweight feel and a polished look that works well for both formal and semi-casual events. My son looked adorable in it, and it was perfect for the spring wedding we attended. What I love: Complete 5-piece set—no need to buy extras Lightweight and comfortable material Classic, stylish look with nice details (lapel, pockets, etc.) Adjustable waistband is super helpful for fit Versatile for weddings, holidays, and other events Fit was true to size based on the chart, but I agree with the recommendation—if your child is between sizes or growing quickly, sizing up is a good idea. I sized up with the hopes that he can wear it again for another event because it looks fantastic! Overall, a really cute and practical suit set that looks great without being uncomfortable. Perfect for any special event

Boys’ 5‑Piece Linen Suit Set
Color: Beige, Size: 16, Color: Beige, Size: 16
I ordered this 5‑piece linen suit in size 16 in the beige color. The set includes the jacket, pants, dress shirt, bow tie, and a slip‑on tie. The outer fabric is a blend of 70% polyester, 25% linen, and 5% spandex, and the lining is 100% polyester. The material is lightweight, which works well for warm‑weather events, but the pants are noticeably thinner than the jacket. The jacket feels sturdier because of the full lining. The jacket has a peak lapel, flap pockets, and cuff buttons, and the stitching and seams are tight and even. I did notice a few loose threads, but the fabric itself was smooth with no tears or flaws. The pants have an adjustable waistband, which is helpful, but the length was too long and will need to be tailored. The overall cut of the suit seems designed for children on the thinner side. The shirt included in my set was a pleated style rather than a plain dress shirt. It wasn’t the style shown in the product photos, and I would have preferred a standard shirt that could be worn for various occasions rather than a very formal shirt. The tie is a pre‑tied slip‑on style with an elastic band. I would have preferred a traditional tie instead. The suit arrived in good condition with no damage, and the color was even throughout all pieces. The price is on the higher end for similar 5‑piece sets. I rated it 4 stars because the jacket is well made and the set includes all the expected pieces, but the thin pants, unexpected pleated shirt, and slip‑on tie kept it from being perfect.

Color: Light Blue, Size: 10, Color: Light Blue, Size: 10
Got this suit set for my son and absolutely love it. It comes with everything he needs to look sharp, and I really appreciate that it includes both a tie and a bow tie so we can switch up the style depending on the occasion. The quality is impressive for the price — the fabric feels light and comfortable, and the whole outfit has a polished look without being stiff or uncomfortable. The fit was spot on, and the adjustable waistband is a huge help for getting it just right. My son looked great in it, and it’s definitely something he can wear for more than one event. The little details on the jacket and pants give it a classic, dressed‑up feel that works for weddings, holidays, or any special moment. Overall, it’s a stylish, practical set that makes getting him ready so much easier. Really happy with this purchase.
