Silly Boy Blue Begins a Bittersweet New Era with ‘summer1’

The first chapter of upcoming grief-inspired EP, 'Goodbye Matters'

Silly Boy Blue returns with 'summer1', a hauntingly beautiful ballad that signals the start of a new era in her artistry. The cinematic alt-pop track, released today, introduces her forthcoming EP, 'Goodbye Matters', a five-part exploration of grief, memory, and emotional renewal.

Written between Paris and Brussels with acclaimed producer Paco Del Rosso (Damso, Lucky Love, Rimon), 'summer1' sets the tone for what promises to be a deeply personal and vulnerable body of work. Laced with rich textures and quiet melancholy, the track captures the dissonance of a sunlit summer shadowed by the absence of a loved one - smiling through sorrow, suspended in time.

The upcoming EP is structured around the seasons, with each track representing a chapter in the mourning process: from confusion to acceptance, through the lens of sound. 'summer1' is the first note in this emotional diary - bittersweet, intimate, and quietly powerful.

Known for her raw songwriting and modern take on melancholia, Silly Boy Blue has already made waves across Europe with a Victoires de la Musique nomination. With 'summer1', she invites listeners into a softer, more personal world - one that begins with goodbye.

'summer1' is out now
