The Weekly GELT's TOP - Sept. 19, 2015

Artist of the Week : BOY

"Swiss/German musicians Valeska Steiner and Sonja Glass aka BOY surely didn’t had such an impressive journey in their minds when they released their debut album Mutual Friends in September 2011. But slowly and steady the word got carried into the world that there’s something special about this little indie/folk gem which delivered such sweet hits like Little Numbers,Waitress and Drive Darling. First, BOY infected their home country and spent impressive 40 weeks in the album Top 100, club gigs suddenly turned into big outdoor events and Germany, Austria and Switzerland became too small for the two women.

Followed by two years of global touring BOY pretty much played everywhere they were called to. The duo followed the demand, peformed in Australia, Japan, Europe and multiple times in the USA as well. Yes, they might not had a big breakthrough in a commercial sense yet but they suddenly got fans all over the world and a different understanding of global dimensions it seems.‘Cause everywhere we’ve been, we have been leaving traces, they won’t ever disappear’ sings Steiner in the title-track of the duo’s second studio album We Were Here. The song that opens the only nine-track-strong longplayer is both – position-fixing and a fresh start. BOY have to walk the always difficult tightrope of a second studio album. Familiar qualities have to find a new place within increased professionalism and new thoughts. Of course, We Were Here doesn’t sound like Mutual Friends anymore. Whoever expected that might have been a bit too naive and also underestimated the talent of these two women.

We Were Here is a more than solid follow-up to Mutual Friends. It’s more ambitious but in a very charming way. It’s impossible and unnecessary to follow the exact same footprints of its predecessor. There’s no need in standing still and remaining in your small microcosm. There are so much good things to see, especially in times like these. The world might be a scary place but there’s far more beauty and good things to be found in it than you might think. And thank god, there are bands like BOY to remind us of that fact."
