Boy Golden

Boy Golden

Winnipeg’s Boy Golden is one of Canada’s most exciting modern roots artists, blending folk, alternative country and psychedelic Americana. With a Canadian Folk Music Award, JUNO nomination, Billboard Canada #1 single and tours with The Sheepdogs, The Paper Kites and Lucero, he’s rapidly building an international audience as a compelling live artist.

A moonstone glow infuses Boy Golden’s music – alt/indie folk meditations that think deeply, feel strongly, and love unconditionally. On new album, Best of Our Possible Lives, Boy Golden follows his intuition, finds emotional balance and welcomes the possibility of transformation through twelve songs of self-discovery. Boy Golden’s music flows freely, channeling the lo-fi mystery of mk.gee, the laid-back swagger of MJ Lenderman and the lyrical intimacy of Waxahatchee. Fresh. Observational. Honest.

The new album features superb contributions from the likes of producer Robbie Lackritz and Grammy-winner Pino Palladino, among others, making Best of Our Possible Lives as sonically gratifying as it is thought-provoking.
