Chris Ablin is from Southern California and can write songs that sound like they were made just for you about the most awkward, painful, and funny times in life. "Burn Baby Burn," his new song takes a memory from his childhood and turns it into a funny, memorable, and emotional song that moves quickly.
Ablin wrote "Burn Baby Burn" based on something that really happened to him when he was a teen. It tells the story of a family that moved from La Crescenta to Hermosa Beach and how happy they were to see the ocean for the first time. Ablin didn't hesitate to jump right into life on the coast with a new boogie board. He spent hours in the sun and waves. The next morning, reality hit hard. What should have been a great summer memory turned into a hard lesson about being young, weak, and too sure of yourself.
Instead of thinking about the pain, Ablin uses humor and momentum to change how he sees the situation. The song "Burn Baby Burn" is all about how things are different. It has bright, lively melodies and talks about what happens when you spend too much time outside. The song goes by quickly, just like a day that seemed like it would never end but is now just a memory. There is always a fun side to the story, but it never loses the edge that makes it real.
Ablin turns something that happens to everyone into a story that everyone can understand. The end result is a song that sounds great on summer playlists, but it also has a lot of emotional depth. "Burn Baby Burn" is a sharp, personality-filled track that stands out for fans of indie music that tells stories and artists who mix humor and honesty. Chris Ablin shows that even the worst things in life can inspire songs that are real, relatable, and stay with you.
