BOY AND BEAR IN CONCERT:

Indie darlings Boy and Bear have delighted fans with their folk-tinged rock since their inception in 2009, and they’ve steadily risen to the top of Australia's underground scene. With their soaring harmonies and sparing use of banjo and piano, Boy and Bear creates a full, ethereal sound that comes to life during their riveting live performances. One of the hottest new acts to emerge from Down Under, the five-piece delivers passionate, emotional sets on their must-see tours. 

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

Initially the solo project of Dave Hosking, Boy and Bear took its present shape after the singer/guitarist met his future bandmates -- all of which were performing in other groups at the time -- while sharing the bill with them at local shows around their native Sydney, Australia. After spending time playing together and honing their songwriting, Boy and Bear released their 2011 debut album Moonfire, which peaked at No. 2 in Australia and earned the band five ARIA Awards. Their 2013 follow-up LP Harlequin Dream topped the charts and earned praise from critics and fans alike. After spending time on the road with Angus and Julia Stone and Mumford & Sons as well as headlining their own dates, the band has gained a devoted following. Known for their captivating live sets, Boy and Bear have ticket buyers in awe every time they take the stage.

FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:

"It's so rare to watch a band that is genuinely enjoying itself on stage. These guys have great chemistry performing together. Seriously fun to watch. AND they sound even better live than they do on their album. Amazing!"

"Boy & Bear is bound for the ranks of Mumford & Sons and Fleet Foxes. Ones to watch!"

"They all play and sing very well. I like the indie rock/alt-country sound they bring because it sounds fresh and different and doesn't get tiresome. Most definitely a worthy listen!"

  • Hell of a concert!

    by Jeff on 9/16/24Brighton Music Hall presented by Citizens - BostonRating: 5 out of 5

    Once I got word on parking, that was easy. The venue was clean and well maintained. The staff was friendly and helpful. The two groups were extremely awesome! Boo Seeka and Boy & Bear had very talented members. All played and sang with high energy and professional experience. These guys were really great! Thanks so much!

  • Best kept secret

    Wonderful small venue to enjoy this amazing 5 piece band from Australia. everything from the vocals to the instrumentation was incredible. I have followed them for years and it’s a rare opportunity when they come to North America.

  • Incredible show!

    We saw Stu Larsen and Boy and Bear, and OH MY GOSH. What an incredibly talented group. Every song they played was amazing, it was musical bliss the entire time. If you have the chance to go see them, DO IT!!!!! You won't regret it!!

  • Incredible Show!

    by mmacaronnie on 10/15/19House of Blues San Diego presented by Cricket Wireless - San DiegoRating: 5 out of 5

    I've been a Boy and Bear fan for a while now, but had never seen them live. I also dragged along my partner, who had heard them once or twice with me. We were both blown away by how incredible they were live. The recorded music truly doesn't do them justice. The venue was also intimate, which was amazing and their fans are such a cool crowd. 10/10, will see again!

  • Great show

    Nice concert venue and the band sounded perfect, would recommend them to everyone

  • Such an incredible live band!

    by K. R. on 9/19/19Brighton Music Hall presented by Citizens Bank - BostonRating: 5 out of 5

    Rated 5 for the band, because they were absolutely amazing. One of my favorite bands, will see them every time they come back to Boston. Only issue we experienced, I wish they would indicate the time they expect the band to be on stage. My wife and I showed up at 8:30 pm thinking the band would be on around 9:00 to find out the set was done at 9:00. First time seeing this band and so bummed to miss 80% of the set. So glad we made it for the last few songs + encore but really sad to have missed the rest because they were so great. Earlier in they day we reached out to a previous Boy & Band event to find out what time they started their set and someone told us 9:45 PM which is why we took our time arriving. Next time i will be there for the door opening.

  • Boy & Bear brings it on!

    by AlohaNorm on 11/5/16Teragram Ballroom - Los AngelesRating: 5 out of 5

    I have been a fan of their music for about two years and wanted to see them live last year but missed out. Wasn't going to let that happen again! They were terrific and this was also my first trip to the Teragram Theater. Given a CHOICE I would like to sit down, but with rocking music you are tempted to stand anyway. So it's all good.
