Boniface takes emotional trip down memory lane on "Again & Again"
Canadian singer/songwriter Boniface lays everything bare with stripped back follow up to stirring debut "I Will Not Return As A Tourist".
The B-side to "I Will Not Return As Tourist", "Again & Again" is another stirring ode to adolescence and escapism, but this time Boniface strips back the production leaving just his vocals and an acoustic guitar strumming away as accompaniment. Reminiscent of the raw, visceral talent of Phoebe Bridgers' and her first full-length offering Stranger In The Alps, Boniface's second track is an audio postcard to his childhood home complete with lyrical literalism and tween angst.
"I always find myself drifting towards the intimacy I tapped into on "Again and Again". I wrote it just after finishing up "I Will Not Return as a Tourist" and I think in a lot of ways it was a reaction to the way "Tourist" ended up" Boniface explains. "I Will Not Return as a Tourist" is really massive in scope - such huge feelings of restlessness and sprawling production. "Again and Again" is the other side of that. I wrote it about the simple, sweet, intimate moments you experience while feeling stagnant. The routines you settle into and only realize were precious in hindsight.”
