Bonjay to release new single

bonjayFledgling Toronto based act Bonjay are due to release their debut single “Creepin'” on June 6th.

Drawing their name from Spice Island slang for “good god!”, singer Alanna Stuart and multi-instrumentalist Ian ‘Pho’ Swain have opened for bands such as Twin Shadow, tUnE-YarDs, Glasser, as well as playing alongside club acts Kid Cudi, Diplo, South Rakkas and Kingdom – a mix that fits a unique proposition of dancehall innovation, twisted pop sentiments, and R&B hooks. It’s an unlikely mix, but one that makes sense coming from two strong, contrasting personalities brought together in one of the world’s emerging melting pots.

The single is being released on a limited-edition notebook – with a unique download code – through One Bird Records. The minimal leftfield soul of “Creepin” is worlds away from the dancehall air horn of b-side “Stumble”.
