Boys In a Band

We play with fire and are on music.

About Me


With one foot planted firmly in modern indie rock ground and the other wobbling about, Boys in a Band look backwards into music history, eclectically mixing that which they see fit into a musical melting pot of calculated chaos. The reckless and danceable rhythms of revivified classic rock n roll, the weighty and lofty vitality of pre-Elvis black gospel and blues, the epic grittiness of old school country, the bare idealism of hippy protest singing and the flashy groove of seventies cock rock – these diverse and, at times, more than slightly contradictory elements exist in perfect harmony in Boys in a Band's universe, thanks to their utterly infectious and youthful charisma, of which they are brimming. The band has been booked to several musically upper-class festival since they started playing in September 2006 – SPOT (DK), Roskilde (DK), G! Festival (FO), Iceland Airwaves (IS) and Canadian Music Week (CA). The five boys who make up the band have come a long way in a short time and whether they will become the world's biggest band is for some just a question of timing and luck. What ever the case, Boys in a Band bring things back to the basics in their unwaveringly enthusiastic dedication to the rock n roll dream: Having fun and changing the world in the process.
