Boy In Space

New Single: Dance Alone
 Dinner   Energetic   Sad   Travel 

Boy In Space is back with the track 'Dance Alone', the first track of two EPs coming in 2021, 'Frontyard/Backyard'.
Most people will have a backyard and frontyard of themselves, one side you show to the society and one you keep for yourself, or maybe sharing with your closest. Maybe a darker side of you. Or a more real version of yourself.

Dance Alone is about facing different kinds of issues with a puzzled mind. Not knowing why everything is the way it is and feeling like you wanna hide from it.
