Brooklyn based The Boston Boys are a well-educated rootsy bluegrass band with a jazz twist. All four members attended the Berklee School of Music in Boston and decided to start a band. The new EP Keep You Satisfied is high on craftmanship, but low on risk taking. When they do throw out the textbooks in the final two tracks things come alive. They are no longer a rather innocent clean-cut band that was selected as one of the seven acts to add a musical support to the re-election campaign of President Obama. On the upside for them: the State Department picks up the tab for their current European tour.
