Someday Cowboy

Someday Cowboy was recorded in two days in the childhood home of lead singer Jeremy Witten.[6][7] The album's lead single, "Someday My Space Cowboy Will Come," was released on 27 July 2018 and premiered by Indie88.[8][9] "U Don't Have 2 Go Alone," the album's second single, was premiered by Earmilk on 24 August 2018.[10][11]

On 20 December 2018, Baby Jey premiered "Every Thing," the album's third single and accompanying music video, via Exclaim Magazine.[1]

In Vue Weekly, Jeff MacCallum distinguished the album from Baby Jey's previous release Best Wishes, stating that "the nine songs delivered on this outing work together to make a cohesive listen which was lacking on their debut."[3] Writing for the magazine BeatRoute, Kennedy Pawluk focused more specifically on the musical styles featured on the album, calling it "a light-hearted pop record at its core [that] shares a twang reminiscent of golden era country greats."[12] Obscure Sound wrote that on Someday Cowboy, Witten's songwriting "showcases a nostalgia within the lyrics."[13] The Deli Magazine called the album "charming and odd yet accessible."[14]

Despite the fact that Baby Jey was founded in Canada, Someday Cowboy initially charted higher on American radio stations than it did on Canadian stations. The album hit #1 on KJHK in Kansas in November 2018, but did not hit #1 on CJSR-FM in Edmonton until late January 2019.[15][16] The album also reached #6 on CFMU in Hamilton, #7 on CHRW in London, and #8 on CJSW in Calgary.[17][18][19] Someday Cowboy peaked at #80 on Muzooka Radio Chart and #95 and on the NACC Top 200.[20][21]
