Summertime is the season of night drives and ride-or-die fantasies, and Henry Morris and Ella Boh take the forever-faithful pair to the next level in “My Girlfriend.” Morris and Boh sing from the spirit that a match made in heaven is irreplaceable. They can sell their cars, pawn off their possessions, and say farewell to people, but they’re sticking by their partner’s side. In the age of casual relationships, the lyrics stand out like a shiny diamond ring. Is the concept of a forever love lost to fiction? Not to Morris and Boh.
The whisper-heavy vocals elevate the level of intimacy. Sure, it’s been done before in dark pop, but these soft promises intertwined with the intensity of the subject create a cinematic ride-or-die tension. Punchy, trap-influenced snares add another layer of friction. The sound serves as a reminder that love comes with sacrifice. And that sacrifice turns the passion into something sacred.
The singer-songwriters Morris and Boh develop dark pop songs, layered with vulnerability and moody lyricism. Morris often pours vintage Americana themes into his music. For fans of Lana Del Rey, Morris’s soft tempos, strings, and tremolo effects recreate the hypnotic, ethereal experience. He released his debut album, Jawbreaker, in 2024 and has opened for Cigarettes After Sex, Joe Jonas, and Artemas. Ella Boh released her debut album, milk & honey, a year later. Her songs echo with devotion and deep bass that travels straight to the heart. She has collaborated with artists like Selena Gomez and Ben Bohmer. Keep up with the artists using the links below!
