Boy Morgan
Go to Boy Morgan's website and you can hear one of the band's song, but only after you press play on a black and white picture of a cassette tape.

Swing by Boy Morgan's Twitter page and read their bio—"Rock and Roll Band. Three Minute Pop Songs." How could anyone want anything more?

You see, there's a push and pull with Boy Morgan, between the present and the past, between the dictates of being a thoroughly modern band and one that wants simply to play uncomplicated, poppy and melodic songs. There's retro and then there's timeless.

But get on with it already, you’re saying. How do they sound? Fun. Rocking. Poppy. Jingly. Jangly. Spangly. Tons of oohs and aahs and soaring choruses. Lots of harmonies, lots of melodies. Everyone trades off vocals, everyone sings, everyone plays, and everyone sounds happy even if the song is kind of sad.
