Boris by Boy

Boy is actually composed of two young ladies: a Swiss singer and a German bassist. The duo met at a folk festival in 2007 and have been making music since then. They’ve released a few albums that are worth exploring, but “Boris” is just grand. Singer Valeska Steiner has such a sincere tone, and you can tell they don’t touch that retouch– the sound is nice n’ flawed. There’s a great remix, but it doesn’t include the sweet bass notes in the original. I have to say, for two gals that call themselves “Boy”, they sound pretty effin sexual. Be on the lookout for them!
