We had the pleasure of interviewing Silly Boy Blue over Zoom video!
Led by the dreamy indie-pop and nostalgic shoegaze vibes of “Not a Friend” (watch), which explores confusing relationships and blurred boundaries, the artistic French native’s moody February release “Widow Dreams Forever” (watch) saw her enter this new era in style – taking audiences through a theatrical journey of freeing herself from the stigma of the grieving widow during a strikingly artistic, editorial music video.
Eternal Lover offers an artistically raw and ‘no holds barred’ insight into the emotional chaos that ensues when facing unrequited love and discovering your identity. A twelve-track collection of hazy, indie-pop gems helmed in sessions between Paris, London and L.A, each song plays like an intimate diary entry, deep from the mind of an introspective artist ready to breakthrough from the underground of the French capital.
Eternal Lover’s breath-taking, conceptual artwork was shot by the renowned French duo Pierre et Gilles, famous for their highly stylized creations for pop icons like Madonna and Kylie Minogue – a major co-sign for Silly Boy Blue’s artistic ambitions.
Meanwhile, Paco del Rosso and Silly Boy Blue’s stellar co-production across Eternal Lover is further brought to life via London’s in-demand mix wizard Geoff Swan, who mixes Eternal Lover fresh from his work for the likes of Caroline Polachek (“Welcome to My Island”), Rina Sawayama (“Hold the Girl”) and Charli XCX (“Yuck”).
Borrowing her name from a David Bowie song from the early part of his career before stardom, Silly Boy Blue shares with him a taste for risk and a deep-rooted desire to push norms and codes. Initially honing her writing skills as a music journalist for France’s most prolific tastemaker publications, Silly Boy Blue eventually began putting pen to paper for a different artistic purpose.
Connecting with audiences with her breakout 2021 debut album Breakup Songs – offering a uniquely introspective outlook on heartbreak and the devastation of lost love – international acclaim for Silly Boy Blue has poured in from the likes of PAPER, Wonderland, Rolling Stone, Clash, Under the Radar and Rain Magazine, alongside significant hype within the blogosphere and her official COLORS debut in 2020.
