Boyish

About

Boyish isn't just making music; they're crafting meticulously melancholic soundscapes, where vulnerability meets unflinching self-awareness. This indie rock duo, comprised of India Shore and Claire Altendahl, sculpts raw emotion into sonic tapestries that resonate with a generation navigating the complexities of love, loss, and identity. Rooted in the DIY ethos of bedroom pop but polished with a sharper, more deliberate edge, Boyish draws inspiration from artists like Phoebe Bridgers and Soccer Mommy, blending introspective lyricism with driving rhythms and soaring melodies. Their career took off with early EPs showcasing their distinctive blend of vulnerable songwriting and catchy hooks. Breakthrough moments included critical acclaim for singles like "Brooklyn Baby" (a Lana Del Rey cover, unusually) and their debut album, "Garden Spider," solidifying their position as a band to watch. Boyish’s music is more than just a collection of songs; it’s a soundtrack to the messy, beautiful experience of being young and navigating the world. Their cultural impact lies in their ability to articulate feelings often left unsaid, offering solace and connection to listeners who find themselves reflected in their introspective narratives. Recent projects include consistent touring and hints at a highly anticipated follow-up to their debut album, suggesting a continued evolution of their sound and lyrical depth.
