BottleRock 2025: Benson Boone serves up Moonbeam ice cream inspired by new single
Benson Boone's first backflip of BottleRock Napa Valley didn't take place during his festival set. Nor did it occur in a flashy jumpsuit. Instead, the pop singer, simply donning jeans and a T-shirt, performed his signature move at the closing of his debut on BottleRock's Williams Sonoma Culinary Stage on Saturday, May 24. Boone joined Green Day drummer Tré Cool and 'Righteous Gemstones' star Adam Devine, who constructed massive seafood rolls, to dish up Moonbeam ice cream. The dessert is a nod to his latest single, 'Mystical Magical.' View this post on Instagram A post shared by Benson Boone (@bensonboone) The single, released just last month off his forthcoming album, 'American Heart' (due out June 20), features Boone singing, 'Nothing else will feel right, you can feel like / Moonbeam ice cream, taking off your blue jeans / Dancing at the movies, 'cause it feels so / Mystical, magical.' It's unclear where Boone got the idea for Moonbeam ice cream, but the day before the song dropped, he teased the release on Instagram with a photo of him holding a purple pint of ice cream labeled 'Benny's Moonbeam Ice Cream.' Moonbeam ice cream then started trending on social media with fans and ice cream shops releasing their interpretations of the icy treat. Most feature unconventional combinations of ingredients for a concoction that feels — you guessed it — magical and mystical. Some iterations contain glitter, bright pastel colors and swirls, but Boone brought his original recipe to BottleRock — which he admitted was his first-ever time making it from scratch.

Benson Boone Breaks His Own Record As His New Single Rises
Benson Boone's 'Sorry I'm Here for Someone Else' hits No. 30 on the Hot 100, becoming his ... More second-highest-charting single to date. ELMONT, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 11: Benson Boone performs onstage during the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards at UBS Arena on September 11, 2024 in Elmont, New York. (Photo byfor MTV) Benson Boone only has a few more weeks before he releases his sophomore album, American Heart. The highly-anticipated project is currently being promoted by two singles, both of which are getting a full push at pop radio in the U.S., and the singer recently dropped a new tune, 'Momma Song,' which may become a hit as well in just a few days. The first two tracks earned lofty debuts upon arrival, and now both "Sorry I'm Here for Someone Else" and its follow-up "A Mystical Magical" are climbing across a number of tallies, including the Hot 100. As they rise, one of them breaks a tie and establishes itself as a real smash in the singer-songwriter's discography. "Sorry I'm Here for Someone Else" lifts two spots on the Hot 100 this week, ascending from No. 32 to No. 30. While a jump of just a pair of positions may not seem important, it's a meaningful one for Boone. The single now stands as his second-highest-rising hit ever on the ranking of the most consumed songs in the U.S. Last week, when "Sorry I'm Here for Someone Else" sat at No. 32, it was tied for that honor with "Slow It Down." That single, featured on his first full-length Fireworks & Rollerblades, stalled at No. 32 in September 2024, and now ranks as his third-highest-rising win. "Sorry I'm Here for Someone Else" gains ground on the Hot 100 thanks largely to its quick adoption at radio. The tune appears on four of Billboard's airplay rosters, and it climbs to new peaks on three of them this frame. The American Heart focus track jumps to No. 20 on the Radio Songs tally, No. 6 on the Adult Pop Airplay list, and it breaks into the top 10 for the first time on the Pop Airplay roster, pushing from No. 11 to No. 10. At the same time, it holds at its all-time peak of No. 19 on the Adult Contemporary roster. "Mystical Magical" isn't far behind its predecessor. After barely breaking into the top 40 on the Hot 100, the track dipped to No. 45, but has now reversed course. This week, it steps up three spaces to No. 42. If it gets picked up at radio, it could soon continue its growth on the ranking. "Beautiful Things" is still far and away Boone's biggest and highest-rising hit on the Hot 100. The tune remains present at No. 8 on the competitive tally, even after 68 weeks on the list. The smash peaked at No. 2 in March 2024 and, amazingly, hasn't disappeared from the ranking.

Benson Boone's New Single Starts Strong, Just Behind No. 1
In less than a month, Benson Boone will release his hugely-anticipated sophomore album, American Heart. The full-length is expected to drop on June 20, and the pop singer is doling out tunes from the 10-song set at a rapid pace. He currently has a pair of singles on the Billboard charts from the forthcoming effort, and as of this Friday (May 23), he has now shared a third cut — one which may be on its way to becoming another top seller for the superstar. Boone dropped the third official single from American Heart, "Momma Song," at the beginning of the new tracking week. For a period of time, it ruled the iTunes Top Songs chart in the United States, standing out as the top-selling track in the country on what is usually considered the most important platform for song purchases. As of the time of writing, however, it has been pushed to the runner-up spot. "Momma Song" steps aside to allow "The Perfect Fan (Demo)" by the Backstreet Boys to lead the iTunes Top Songs ranking in America. That tune came with little warning and shot right to the summit once fans woke up and realized it was available. With it, the group's album Millennium also soars on the iTunes Top Albums list. It currently appears at No. 2, despite the fact that it was originally released decades ago. The arrival of "Momma Song" is having a positive impact on the previous two American Heart singles on iTunes. The first track from the full-length, "Sorry I'm Here for Someone Else," climbs by double-digit spaces and currently appears at No. 61. "Mystical Magical," the latest tune shared – until today – is still present inside the top 40, and at the moment lifts to No. 33. Of course, when it comes to Boone's catalog, one tune stands out above the rest. "Beautiful Things," which helped introduce him to the public more than a year ago, is still a strong seller. The tune returns to the top 20 on the iTunes Top Songs tally, pushing to No. 18.
