“’Reverie’ refers to sort of a daydream, and when I think of daydreams, it’s often subconsciously. They’re often about something that you aren’t necessarily processing in your normal life, or that you aren’t able to name yet in the kind of literal way. It’s like you are kind of dreaming in a way that’s out of your control,” Ben told Clash.
Ben said he wrote the album while living in his childhood bedroom during the pandemic.
“I was living in this really interesting in-between space,” Ben said. “I was reverting to my teenage self and feeling nostalgia and remembering where I’d come from. This was mixed with the fact that I was in a new relationship, which is kind of my most formative relationship that I’ve been in in my life.”
Ben is referring to his relationship with boyfriend Noah Galvin. Find out why he says it took them five years to start dating.
