After playing in various bands throughout their high school days, John Keefe (drums), Bryan Donahue (bass), Paul DiGiovanni (lead guitar) and Martin Johnson (singer) solidified the line-up. Then, like most smart bands, the guys posted some demos online. An early demo version of "The Great Escape" and acoustic spin on "Thunder" were the sparks that ignited a firestorm of attention on the band's MySpace - as well as from the producer Matt Squire (Panic! At The Disco).
The Boston-area band’s self-titled debut album, "Boys Like Girls" kicks off with the youthful enthusiasm of "The Great Escape" and closes with the "What's Next?" sentiment of ballad "Holiday". In between is emotionally-charged rock that isn't afraid to wear its heart on its sleeve, digs a good pop hook and certainly speaks volumes to anyone who has loved -- and maybe got their heart bruised in the process.
First single “The Great Escape” already on high rotation on 987FM!
