The Trouble With Boys

**The Trouble With Boys** is a New Jersey-based indie pop-punk trio bursting with infectious energy and a DIY spirit. Formed in 2018, the band features Grace (vocals/guitar), Max (bass), and Sam (drums), serving up catchy, riff-driven tracks like “Japanese Gameshow” and their self-titled anthem “The Trouble With Boys.” Known for their relatable lyrics about teenage angst, awkward crushes, and suburban chaos, they’ve carved out a scrappy, fun-loving sound that nods to early 2000s pop-punk with a modern twist. Self-recording their music and gigging relentlessly, they’ve built a grassroots following while sharing stages with acts like The Regrettes and The Mysterines. Keep an eye on these Jersey kids—they’re all about big hooks, bigger feelings, and zero pretense.
