Benson Boone is switching gears just in time for summer, and fans are here for it. His new single, “Mystical Magic,” the fourth track from his highly anticipated upcoming album “American Heart,” is an infectious, synth-heavy pop gem that practically begs to be played on repeat.
Boone leans into a simpler lyrical style this time around, an intentional move that works in his favor. Simple lyrics are often the most memorable, and “Mystical Magic” proves it. It’s a breezy, feel-good love song that captures the fluttery excitement of chasing a crush, and it does so with charm, ease, and unmistakable charisma.
Vocally, Boone delivers one of his most magnetic performances to date. There’s a sultry undercurrent to his delivery, wrapped in playful high falsettos and a confident tone that elevates the song’s groovy, upbeat production.
While some fans have expressed a fondness for Boone’s more melancholic ballads, this new direction is hard to resist. The shift toward a brighter, summery sound feels both fresh and well-timed, offering something new while keeping his signature style intact.
Fans first got a taste of the track during Boone’s standout Coachella performance last month, and it lit up the crowd. “Mystical Magic” is quickly shaping up to be one of the defining songs of the season, and we can’t wait to see what else “American Heart” has in store.
