Born between the years 1995 and 1996, The Trouble With Boys were raised in the post-grunge alternative aftermath influenced by groups such as Nirvana and Pearl Jam, and classic rock fueled videogames like Guitar Hero and Rockband. This equation has created a hook-heavy, guitar pop that is reminiscent of Weezer, Kiss and the Foo Fighters. This band’s mixture of hard rock, teen spirit and ceaseless energy create a quirky songwriting style that you would expect from a generation that understands ADD as much as AC/DC. The boys meld heavy guitars, pretty melodies and punk rock sensibility. The band’s lyrics draw fans into a mischievous (“That’s the Trouble With Boys”) millennium rocker kid’s lifestyle of television (“Japanese Gameshow”), videogames, computers and an being an adolescent misfit in middle school (“Remember Me”).
The Trouble With Boys opened 2009 with tour date in Southern Californiia. The band began its trip to Los Angeles by recording a new single, “Japanese Gameshow.” The band finished cutting the new track at the Loveless Motel Recording Studio and played four gigs in Anaheim, Los Angeles and Valencia.
After rocking crowds from Ohio, Kentucky, Illinois and Indiana since March 2005 as a high energy pre-teen band, The Trouble With Boys have become spirited teen songwriters with catchy guitar hooks. Their newest original song, “Japanese Gameshow” joins the bands other eight original tunes that will be released on the band’s first full-length album.
The band enters 2009 with high expectations. Last year, they won Taste of Chicago's 12th Annual Taste of Talent Competition. The band will be featured among Taste of Chicago's 2009 Entertainment line-up. In addition to the Chicago performance, The Trouble With Boys plans shows in Tennessee, New York and Florida.
Conner Sinclair, the 12 year old lead singer and guitarist was born with a classic, growling frontman voice, which melds perfectly with the pretty back-up vocal harmonies sang by Ryan Michael, the drummer and vocalist for the band. Fourteen year old lead guitarist Foster Davis has established himself as a shredding axeman and spokesman for the band. Recently, bass player Matt Charles joined the band. Matt had led his Madison, IN band, Rock in a Box before joining The Trouble With Boys.
Everywhere this band plays, people cannot get enough of The Trouble With Boys. They have played at the NAMM Show in Anaheim, Six Flags Parks in California and Kentucky, Taste of Chicago, Cincinnati’s Meijer Kid Fest, the Kentucky State Fair, the Hard Rock Café, Phoenix Hill Tavern, Fourth Street Live, Coney Island (Cincinnati), county fairs throughout Indiana and many private parties and fundraisers.
