Noah Bouchard is back, teasing his upcoming album with a fresh single, ‘Swan Song’. A beat centred around a smooth, melodic and nostalgic piano line drives the track with rhythmic, slightly swung drum lines. Rich bass hits and twinkling counter melodies continue to build out the backdrop for Noah’s reserved but wise vocal delivery. Speaking to the love and romance in his lyrics, he takes control of the music with a steadfast rapping style, relaxed and meditative as it gently moves along.

Noah speaks on the new single: “Swan Song is the second single and a turning point in my upcoming album. The song is a dedication to a close and special friendship that helped me regain confidence and hope when in a difficult place. It is a gentle but upbeat song expressing appreciation and love and I'm hoping it will help people understand how valuable they are to the people they love.”
