A Leeds quartet all sharing the surname ‘Boyfriend’ – what else could they call themselves but This Many Boyfriends?
The indie act, who take their name from a Beat Happening track describe their sound as “funpop” – but be careful not to use certain descriptions for them! They are issuing their new single as a hand-drawn fanzine. ‘Starling’, released on February 20, can be heard on the band’s Soundcloud page.
On the wings of ‘Starling’, the band go on a UK tour – three of those dates shared with The Cribs, and most of the others alongside Allo Darlin’:

24 – Sheffield, Queen’s Social Club (with Allo Darlin’)

26 – Leeds, Brudenell Social Club (with Allo Darlin’)
