Boy & Bear

It doesn’t seem that long ago that the nation was falling in love with one of Boy & Bear’s pivotal first singles, “Mexican Mavis”. Creeping slowly through the national airwaves, discovered by music lovers and settling itself in minds across the country, “Mexican Mavis” was an accidental statement of intent.  The knowledge of the five gentlemen from Sydney grew; generated mainly by their passionate followers, and soon the gathering that Boy & Bear found themselves in front of had turned into a congregation.

Boy & Bear has grown into a bigger beast than even the five core members could have ever imagined.  Their EP, driven by singles “Mexican Mavis” and “Rabbit Song” saw them tour internationally, gain praise from tough critics and get the nod from triple j; winning the Unearthed j Award.  Now their debut album Moonfire is receiving all the attention; securing five ARIA awards, a prestigious shortlist nomination for The Amp and entering triple j’s hottest 100 three times, with single “Feeding Line” reaching the top five.

After spending 2 months touring nationally in May/June 2012 in intimate regional rooms and theatres as a way of thanking their fans for their ongoing support, Boy & Bear are very much looking forward to returning to Southbound in 2013.
