GEOFFROY RETURNS WITH A NEW LP, GOOD BOY OUT JUNE 14, 2024, AND SHARES LEAD SINGLE “C.A.Y.A.”
Geoffroy is an essential and emerging voice in Canadian music. Now three LPs into a career that has solidified him as one of Quebec’s best artists, the Montreal-born songwriter and producer takes the next step internationally with the release of his fourth full-length Good Boy, out June 14, 2024.
Almost 10 years removed from his first release, this project was sparked with the intention of creating Geoffroy’s most authentic work to date, blending organic instrumentation and electronic elements into a bright and rich album filled with diverse sounds, a collection of songs that moves beyond the brooding depth that has defined recent works.
Today, he shares the first single from the album, “C.A.Y.A.”.
“This one was a real challenge to crack,” says Geoffroy. “I spent over a year messing around with the instrumental, trying to come up with the perfect topline. Had some awesome ideas, but none of them felt quite right. Still, I couldn’t give up on this track. There was something special about the music, and I was determined to figure it out. Then, just before our last recording session, it finally clicked: the chorus came to me out of the blue, and everything else just fell into place. This song is all about being real and true to yourself, no matter what. It’s about sticking to who you are, even when the world tries to push you to change.”
The official music video for “C.A.Y.A.” follows Geoffroy on a recent trip to Thailand where he played the single first for people he encountered. The video, directed by longtime friend and collaborator Kyle Smith, expands on Geoffroy’s tradition of vibrant travel videos but adds a colourful, comedic tone that matches that of the new music.
