Julien Baker and Torres bring their shared Southern roots to the forefront on Send A Prayer My Way, a country-folk collaboration released via Matador Records in 2025. The two singer-songwriters — Baker hailing from Tennessee and Torres from Georgia — channel the sounds of their upbringing into something deeply personal, blending acoustic guitar, pedal steel, and fiddle with road-weary lyrics and intimate harmonies.

At its heart, Send A Prayer My Way is an honest and heartfelt record, rooted in the queer experience of growing up in the American South where country music was inescapable yet rarely welcoming. Tracks like opener "Dirt" showcase Baker's raw, confessional lyricism alongside warm country instrumentation, while the pair's vocal interplay throughout the album feels both charming and genuine — a true meeting of two distinct artistic voices finding common ground.
