Acclaimed Swedish pop artist Boy In Space (Robin Lundbäck) is gearing up to release his fresh new single, ‘Dancing On Dynamite,’ on August 30th. This release continues a year of deep introspection and vulnerability for the artist, as he candidly addresses both physical and mental health struggles through his music.
Earlier this year, Boy In Space released his deeply personal EP ‘Copium,’ which marked a shift towards a new sound imbued with deeper meaning. The EP’s singles, ‘Atom Bomb,’ ‘Finally Fine Without You,’ and ‘The Last Time,’ showcased a more intimate side of Robin, delving into themes of mental health and personal growth. The scenic video for ‘Mayflowers’ further allowed him to explore lighter and more creative expressions, drawing inspiration from his passion for old-school films.
Since the release of ‘Copium,’ Robin has been on the road, drawing inspiration from new experiences, particularly in the American Upper South. His upcoming single ‘Dancing On Dynamite’ retains the signature Boy In Space elements—beautifully cutting vocals and tearjerking lyrics with a hopeful undertone—but introduces acoustic guitar and Western-inspired percussion, reflecting his recent country-rooted influences.
Reflecting on the new single, Boy In Space shared, “I wrote ‘Dancing On Dynamite’ earlier this year in Nashville. It being my first time there, I got heavily inspired to write something that feels like me but with a touch of country. Drawing inspiration from my own life and experiences, I’m so satisfied with the result. Something new for me, but still very much the same.”
Boy In Space has achieved international success from a remarkably young age. After embarking on a world tour with his brothers, he transitioned into a solo career in 2018, quickly establishing himself on the global music scene. His distinctive voice, whimsical writing style, and versatile productions have captivated the pop world, amassing over half a billion streams on Spotify. Throughout his journey, he has maintained his independence as an artist while touring extensively across the United States and Europe.
Following the heartfelt release of ‘Copium,’ Boy In Space is poised to shine even brighter with a new team, a fresh visual identity, and a wealth of new music on the horizon. His collaborations include working with artists and producers like Alan Walker, The Struts, 1Mind, Toby Gad, Pink Sweat$, Phoebe Ryan, NOTD, Shy Martin, John Newman, and more.
With a renewed attitude and determination, Boy In Space is set to leave an indelible mark on today’s pop sound, and the future looks undeniably bright.
