Artist Review: BOY (bonus: free music!)

As I was perusing Noisetrade, -a site that you NEED to check out if you haven't already- I saw a link to a group called BOY, and since I am judgmental and I judge by the look of the album art, I was intrigued.


It looked whimsical and unique, so I gave them a listen, and completely fell in love. They have a sunny, warm, relaxing feeling. It makes me feel like driving around with the windows rolled down during sunset. They have that sweet, lazy feel to them. You don't need to overthink their lyrics, just enjoy them for what they are: a simple spinning of everyday life.
By far, my favorite song of theirs is Little Numbers.
Here's what iTunes has to say:
"'Little Numbers' is like the common cold: contagious and passed from friend to friend. The song's simple conceit- reveling in the warm feeling after collecting a crush's phone number- bounces to a spry indie folk beat and is filled with hand claps, woah-ohs, and daydreams created by seven digits."
Couldn't have said it better myself.
I love her voice, because it's right in my singing range. So of course I sing it all the time!
I definitely give this song a 5 out of 5.

And.... Guess what?? It's free on Itunes this week only!!! You NEED to pick it up. It's so definitely worth it.

Ciao for now,
