BOY

BOY is a Swiss-German indie pop duo that captivates audiences with their blend of honest lyrics, enchanting melodies, and a pure, heartfelt approach to music. Formed in 2007, the duo consists of Swiss singer Valeska Steiner and German bassist Sonja Glass. The pair met at a pop music course at the Hochschule für Musik und Theater Hamburg in Germany, where their musical chemistry and mutual interests in songwriting sparked the creation of BOY.

The band's debut album "Mutual Friends," released in 2011, was a commercial success, particularly in German-speaking countries, and produced hits like "Little Numbers" that quickly garnered international attention. The acoustic versions of their albums, such as those found on "Mutual Friends (Acoustic)" and the "Acoustic Collection," highlight their ability to strip their music back to its raw emotional core, showcasing Steiner's clear voice and the delicate instrumentation they are known for. Following the release of well-received albums such as "We Were Here" in 2015, BOY continued to solidify their presence in the indie music scene, with the more recent releases like "Fit Back In" demonstrating their growth and depth as artists while staying true to their intimate and introspective sonic roots.
