Roe Kapara Returns With Video For New Single "My Love"
With love lingering in the air after the bustle of Valentine’s Day, Roe Kapara returns to weave the remnants into a woozy, unabashed proclamation on his new single, “My Love.” His first release of the year, the track glows with indie experimentation built on falsetto shimmer, quirky charm and electrifying conviction.
Accompanying today’s release is the video directed by Jaxon Whittington (Joyce Manor, The Garden, Momma), Kapara’s surrealist fever dream of a love story.

“There is something so intoxicatingly dangerous about infatuation,” Kapara explains, “because it’s easy to confuse for love. I tried to capture that feeling with ‘My Love.’ When I was making the song with [producer] Ryan Spraker [Weezer, Bleached, Arkells], we wanted it to feel like Van Morrison had a baby with 2010's indie pop synth music. It’s easy to say love songs are corny, but at one point or another we all need them.”
The release of “My Love” follows last year’s singles, fan favorite “Feel Sexy” and “Good Times,” each a self-assured vignette of the magnetic left-field pulse that shapes Kapara’s songwriting. Hinting at the heart of his long-awaited debut album, the recent tracks exude a fearlessness that began to boil to the surface on his last EP, Big Cigars & Satin Shorts (Epitaph, 2024), praised by FLOOD for its “balance of deeply confessional songwriting” and “sense of humor the artist refuses to suppress.”
