Boo Seeka – Real

A fixture on the Australian music scene since 2015, Boo Seeka has grown to command a considerable and committed legion of fans thanks to his ever-evolving approach to music-making.

Taken from the forthcoming album ‘Between The Head and the Heart’ (out 30th June, pre-save here), new single ‘Real’ is a shimmering slice of dance-pop that is sonically immersive and lyrically compelling.

“’Real’ is definitely one of my favourites on the record for me and has so many different messages embedded in the meaning. I wrote this song at a bit of a low point, with the idea of creating a song that can be a bit of a sing-a-long wherever the listener may be. My album, ‘Between The Head and the Heart’, is twelve separate messages that I wrote throughout the COVID period. I really needed to do this for myself, and it has undoubtedly helped me get through the last twelve months. I never want to give away the exact message or meaning of why I wrote a song, firstly, because some things are incredibly specific and personal, but mainly, I love the idea of a listener creating their own meaning to the track. That’s the most important thing about art and music to me.”

Boo tours Australia alongside Hayden James this summer and early autumn, with stops including Brisbane, Melbourne, and Sydney.

Boo Seeka + Golding – Don’t Waste Your Love

One of the best collaborations of the week, Boo Seeka and Golding team up to create a powerful track that propels dark human sadness and holds it up to the light.

“Jay (Golding) and I were hanging out at his house one day and before we knew it, we were getting pretty deep and opening up about a lot of personal stuff that has happened in our separate lives over the last year.  I guess for both of us the best way to deal with that stuff is to write about it – so that’s exactly what we did.  The whole song was written in twenty minutes.” – Ben, Boo Seeka
