ANNOUNCEMENTS:
LISTEN TO OUR LATEST RELEASE, 'IT'S JUST BAD NEWS' BELOW!
DEAD BOYFRIEND IS:
Dead Boyfriend began as the solo passion project of singer songwriter Ashley Nova the summer after she finished high school. With just a laptop and a mic, Nova has released 3 albums and 2 EPs by herself since 2018. An avid fan of DIY, she aimed to capture her love of folk, punk, indie, and singer songwriter genres in her music, and has gained a small following because of it. Dead Boyfriend’s last full length LP, 'Battle of Carthage', helped the band push the envelope even further, and was their first ever professionally recorded project.
Dead Boyfriend loves to push the envelope, combining several genres in a singular album or even song. Tracks range from ballad-esque piano rock to sweeping shoegaze punk, all the way to folk tinged, lofi acoustic tracks. The band isn't afraid to try something new, like including new instruments in their music. Saxophone, dulcimer guitar, melodica, wurlitzer piano, and more have all made their way onto a Dead Boyfriend LP in some way, shape or form. The band released their latest EP, 'it's just bad news', in January of 2024.
