Boy & Bear

Don't be afraid of the ruthless killing machine, Boy & Bear are here to make you feel safe. The Sydney quartet is currently only ciruculating 2 tracks from their upcoming EP, but damn they're good. Lead singer David Hosking's vocals have the depth of David Gray and the occasional slipperiness of a young Jeff Tweedy. Made up of four former lead singers, Boy & Bear are never lacking in harmony and have the indie pop sensibilities of fellow folk crooners Fleet Foxes and Bon Iver. I'm very excited to see where this band goes. There seems to be no resource that Boy & Bear don't have--there's a lot of potential here. Keep track of them on their various social networking pages and take a gander at the lead single, "Mexican Mavis."
