ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Singer-songwriter Ben Chavasse is set to release his second 2026 single this August, with a lush track titled ‘Teething’.
On ‘Teething’, Chavasse sings confessions and yearnings of a wannabe lover boy, experiencing repeated crushings from distant, fantastical crushes. However, there are hints this hopeless romantic is courting his own heartaches.
“It’s about these fantasies of how we might relate to each and get along so well… I think those are naive ideas.”
“It’s about learning to push past feelings of inadequacy that result from a narrow view of intimacy. There’s this desire to become more grounded and go out into the world and meet people where they are.”
