The Junior Boys are here to start your Halloween weekend off right with what’s sure to a be a dancer-ific set at Sonar. I have seen them twice this year and can attest to their downtempo-shake-your-feet goodness. Of course this being baltimore…i am always weary of if an actual crowd will show up (i mean [...]

Now that we’re done self-promoting, here’s some good news from junior boys: They’re playing Sonar the friday of Halloween weekend. Lead Singer Jeremy Greenspan explains his love for halloween:Part of being a young Jewish kid to me was directing all of your excitement that should’ve been for Christmas towards Halloween. I was obsessed with Halloween [...]
Canadian electro-indie-pop twosome Junior Boys plan to tour North America and Australia for October and November of this year. Beginning on October 3rd (just four days time) the pair begin in Melbourne, Australia and carry on throughout the continent for two more nights.
Anything that mentions Halloween or any sort of holiday will always and forever immediately catch my eye. Junior Boys will be embarking on a North American tour next month, including a special Halloween show at The Bell House in Brooklyn (it has a cozy, rustic feel to it & is where I just saw Fanfarlo). Fans are, however, strongly encouraged to celebrate the holiday at all of the shows on tour ...
When the words electro and pop go together, it almost sounds too childish to take seriously and you'd even be fooled into thinking that with a name like Junior Boys, that the electro-pop band in question are themselves a little childish but surprisingly, this album proves both of those assumptions wrong.
Having been a fan of Junior Boys since their tremendous sophomore album So This is Goodbye, I was pretty excited for the show, although not without a few reservations. At the apex of my interest in Junior Boys, In the Morning was perhaps my favorite song and I played it constantly. Around the same time, in the Fall of 2006, while studying History in London I was lucky enough to catch Junior Boy...

So this is the third Junior Boys album. The first of the bunch, Last Exit, was one of my favourites of 2004, and almost single-handedly inspired my friend and I to start a band. I remember Jeremy Greenspan from one of my English classes at McMaster. At the time he wore enormous pants that resembled [...]Related posts:Dead Boys “Young Loud And Snotty” - Album Review Every once in awhile, after
Perhaps it's my deep love for the original innovative electronics duo Suicide, that has me digging the Junior Boys so much. I mean, they really don't sound anything like them, but they have a nice mix of breathy Cure like vocals, and 80's synth pop beats, sampled hand claps, and oh so millennial alienation theme made popular by artists like Radiohead. Hailing from Canada, Jeremy Greenspan a...
Straight from the electro-horse's mouth! Junior Boys themselves have revealed (at the 4:00 mark) that the follow-up to 2006's totally great So This Is Goodbye will be out in January 2009. Dudes should just do a full album collaboration with Cut Copy so I don't have to keep going back and forth. And a blogger can dream -- when I interviewed singer Jeremy Greenspan last year, he said their third ...

Throwback to the sound of the 80's. This is a shoutout to the Junior Boys for honoring what was so great about 80's music. If you haven't figured it out by now, I LOVE 80's music. These guys take everything good about the 80's and mesh it with the technology of today. I love how they combing elements of instruments and electronica into their sound. They do it right.
