The self-titled debut from Canadian solo artist Boniface is a catalogue of formative coming of age experiences, each moment captured in diary-like detail and set against a magnificently sprawling backdrop. Throughout the album, the musician/producer otherwise known as Micah Visser reflects on falling in love and facing heartbreak whilst struggling with identity, never failing to find an ineffable beauty within all the pain. The result is a body of work both bracingly honest and powerfully exhilarating - an emotional journey that Visser encapsulates as “taking little detours and exploring the times when everything feels perfect”.
