Puma June – Love Comes & Goes

Toronto-based artist Puma June’s emotionally charged single, “Love Comes & Goes,” serves as the focal point of her debut A Woman That They Want  EP. Known for her vulnerability and rawness, Puma June creates a space where self-love and acceptance take centre stage. This powerful ballad is the most intimate track on her album, as it delicately navigates women’s health and the personal struggles many women face but rarely speak about.

“Love Comes & Goes” is the kind of song that opens up a conversation, where women can connect over their shared experiences and realize they’re not alone in the struggle. – Puma June

“Love Comes & Goes” draws from Puma June’s own experience, inspired by a phone call from her doctor that left her grappling with the possibility of never having children. The track explores the feeling of being trapped in a body that doesn’t always do what we expect, a poignant reflection on the fear and loneliness that can accompany women’s health struggles.

Produced in the confines of Puma June’s bedroom studio with collaborator Greg Markov, the track’s raw intimacy is reflected in its production. Every note is deliberate, every lyric tender, making “Love Comes & Goes” as empowering as it is melancholic.

Puma June’s debut EP, A Woman That They Want, is a collection of songs exploring the complexity of self-love, vulnerability, and strength. It represents the journey of finding one’s place in a world that too often tries to shrink women into something less. From the heartbreak in “Love Comes & Goes” to the defiant strength in “My Body, My Problem,” the EP is a personal exploration of identity and autonomy.

“I recorded this album in my under-the-stairs closet. I didn’t have the resources for a fancy studio, but I was determined to make something real and raw. I’ve learned to trust my gut through this process, and it’s taught me so much about who I am as an artist.” – Puma June
