Биография

Dear Boy is the torch bearer of lyric forward guitar music and melody focused indie rock. The band has become an important voice in the LA underground music scene, crafting bittersweet songs inspired by late 70’s / early 80's post-punk and early 90's britpop, seen through their unique modern lens. With three EP’s, a bouquet of singles and an impressive tour history, Dear Boy has earned an immense and loyal following. In 2021 Dear Boy completed their debut full length album and in 2022 signed with Last Gang Records. The release will be Dear Boy’s first collaboration with the legendary label. Produced by the band and mixed by Tony Hoffer (Air, Phoenix, M83), the record also features contributions from Day Wave, Hazel English, Rogue Wave, AFI & Ian Hultquist of Passion Pit. The album is called “Forever Sometimes.” The album expands on the band’s signature sound, this time also pulling from shoegaze, new wave, 80’s indie rock and dream pop while still maintaining Dear Boy’s unique modern sensibilities. Dear Boy spent over a year recording the album. “We were ultra specific with every single element of this record while still keeping a sense of unpredictability in the studio. Everything about this album is us. The perspective, the sound, the intention. Our loves, our friends, our words. This is us completely. And it’s the record we’ve been chasing since the day we formed this band.” Dear Boy is Ben Grey, Keith Cooper, Austin Hayman & Lucy Lawrence xx
