About Me

"Spend My Time", live December 2006 @ The Paradise Lounge, Boston, MA. Joey Zehr filling in on drums. "She's Got Everything", live October 2006 @ The Avalon, Boston, MA.
Even your GRANDMA listens to The Teenage Symphonies.
"Colorful and Melodic. Edgy and Guitar Driven. Sophisticated pop perfection.
These are the words that describe the sound of THE TEENAGE SYMPHONIES.
4 lads, 4 instruments, 4 voices.
They keep it simple. But with creativity, sophistication and sheer rock energy, The Teenage Symphonies are able to achieve a powerful, layered, and beautifully unique sound.
And you can hear it for youself.
The Teenage Symphonies Debut EP
The Teenage Symphonies Debut EP is a self-produced modern rock/pop record showcasing 5 original tracks with catchy melodies, edgy guitars and swingin' beats that will move you in more than one way. While the Boston-based quartet's music is for sure upbeat, their heartfelt lyrics will turn any listener to that meaningful side of life which explores personal thoughts, longings and dreams.
From the first 30 seconds of the opening opus "Summer", to the sing-a-long choruses of "West Coast", through the lush harmonies of the grandiose "Spend My Time", into the heartache of the smashing "Dream Girl", and closing with the reflective intimacy of "In Love Again", this EP takes you for a wild ride; a true symphony of love and exploration.
Packed with sonic color, harmony and romance, the depth of The Teenage Symphonies DEBUT EP will have you rocking out, singing along and wanting more.
track list:
1. Summer
2. West Coast
