Bio
B.O.Y.S play hard hitting and melodic garage, punk and surf inspired rock n' roll.
Formed in Brooklyn, the B.O.Y.S have been a staple of the Brooklyn music scene (in one form or another) since 2006. With comparisons that range from Superchunk to Elliot Smith, their range is broad, but always rooted in rock and pop tradition. If you put The Pixies, The Beatles and Pavement in a blender, you may end up with Band of Young Saints. This four piece is sure to make you dance and reflect with their evocative and earnest lyrics, and emphasis on hook driven melody.
With their new addition of Alex on vocals in fall 2010, B.O.Y.S have begin to embark on more ambitious songs while retaining their lyrical, sincere and at often playful approach to pop music. Dance driven grooves join buzzy, punk inspired guitar work to create a true American original, defying easy categorization. These songs could be the soundtrack to your favorite John Hughes movie or Saturday night. With a catalog of original songs and recordings B.O.Y.S embody the DIY attitude of their Brooklyn roots.
