Listen to Trophy Eyes’ powerful new single, Blue Eyed Boy

Ahead of their upcoming appearances at Slam Dunk in May, Trophy Eyes are back with a new single, Blue Eyed Boy.

Says vocalist John Floreani of the song, which was written about a trip back to his hometown in Newcastle, Australia: “One friend in particular, maybe my best friend, had recently moved back and regressed into their old ways. I’d mourned the death of this friend long ago, as did the rest of us in our small social circle. To see him again brought me great childhood joy yet simultaneously an overwhelming sense of dread.

“I was reminded of something my mother told me as a young boy when my grandmother died: ‘If you see her now, like this, it’s the only way you’ll remember her. Best hold on to the good times, you’ll always have those.’”
