Toronto Singer And Producer Billy Raffoul Shares New Single ‘Bliss’

Billy Raffoul, a singer, songwriter, and producer from Nashville and Toronto, has released “Bliss,” a new song, coupled with a lyric video.

The song’s title is taken from the proverb “ignorance is bliss,” and Billy combines his soulful/rock vocals with precise, harmonic fingerpicking to create a lighthearted, pop-influenced soundscape.

About “Bliss,” Raffoul shares, “This song was inspired by the phrase ‘ignorance is bliss,’ but it’s really about trying to hold on to innocence and letting go of cynicism. I initially intended it to be about my own process as a songwriter. When I started writing songs, I would just write them to write them, with no agenda or plan. As I continued through this business, I would catch myself getting more and more methodical and calculated about songwriting at times“.

The Toronto artist goes on to add, “Although that is sometimes necessary, and I enjoy it, the feeling of creating something for the pure fun of it is often unmatched. As this song’s development continued, I tried to simplify the lyrics and message to make it more relatable. It’s a fun song about a song. About doing what feels right and not thinking too much.”

In other news, Billy will be providing support for the popular rock group American Authors on their spring 2023 North American tour. Starting on February 10, the tour will stop at Union Stage in Washington, D.C., World Cafe Live in Philadelphia, Racket in New York, The Troubadour in Los Angeles, and Neumo’s in Seattle.
