Musician and songwriter Ben “Boo” Gumbleton has been steering the Boo Seeka ship for more than half a dozen years. Boo Seeka’s latest album, Between the Head & the Heart, came out on Thursday, 30th June. Boo got together with producer Matt Bartlem (Golding) to walk Music Feeds through the album, track by track.
The run up to Between the Head & the Heart began in December 2021 when Boo released the Imogen Heap-inspired single, ‘Dream’. ‘Dream’ is one of several singles to appear on the album, alongside ‘Finish What You Started’, ‘Next to Me’, and ‘Real’.

Boo describes Between the Head & the Heart as “12 personal messages to myself to get me out of a rut that I was in.” The catalyst for this journey was track two on the album, ‘I Like It Like.’ “[‘I Like It Like’] is dark, it’s moody, it’s everything that I love writing for Boo Seeka,” says Boo.
Boo co-wrote ‘Real’ with Bartlem’s Golding band mate, Jay Bainbridge, as well as Hayden James. Boo recently performed guest vocals on the Hayden James song ‘Free’, from James’ latest album, Lifted. Boo Seeka will be supporting James on his national Lifted tour this August and September, along with Memphis LK.
