On August 31, Troye Sivan releases Bloom, his much-anticipated second album. At the ripe young age of 23, it represents a huge artistic leap forward from 2015’s Blue Neighbourhood, his debut.
Born into a Jewish family in Johannesburg, South Africa, Troye grew up in Western Australia’s capital, Perth, often singing at the local synagogue. He came out at the relative young age of 14. While working on his burgeoning, self-financed pop career, he was also noticed for his acting abilities.
