The band's debut album was released on Bumstead Records and the second one, Every Page You Turn, on MapleMusic Recordings. HistoryStephen Kozmeniuk (born 1982) grew up in Whitehorse, Yukon, and has played guitar since age 14.[2] "Boy" was initially his solo project, and he recorded his album using Pro Tools in his bedroom in Whitehorse.[3][4][5] In 2002, The Globe and Mail described Boy's music as "art rock with a Brit twist, combined with an ultracool, laid-back attitude".[6] Boy toured nationally in support of its self-titled release in 2003, opening for artists such as Sam Roberts, 54-40 and Broken Social Scene. Boy then expanded to a five-man band with new members guitarist James Robertson of Toronto; drummer Maurie Kaufmann from Nanaimo; bassist Steve Payne from Winnipeg; and guitarist Rolla Olak from Victoria.[7] The 2004 album Every Page You Turn, produced by Brenndan McGuire of Sloan fame, was recorded on Vancouver Island, in a cabin.[8] The lead single, "Same Old Song", received airplay on rock radio stations across Canada,[2] and was featured on the soundtrack of the video game FIFA 06. The band toured Canada along with Pilate, and played the South by Southwest festival in Texas, and the 2005 Summer Sonic Festival in Japan.[9] The band's style has been likened to that of Sam Roberts, with influences of late-1960s and 70s British pop-rock music.[10] DiscographyAlbums
