Boyish was formed by India Shore and Claire Altendahl in 2016 at Berklee College of Music.

The duo has accumulated 20 million streams across their catalogue and received praise from various publications including Billboard, Paper, Office Magazine and Pigeons and Planes. The singles from their 2022 EP My Friend Mica landed spots on New Music Friday, All New Indie, and the focus track “Legs” crept up to a #1 spot on Lorem. Following the EP, they released an acoustic version of their track “Smithereens” with indie powerhouse Rachel Chinouriri, who they will be supporting in May of 2023 on her headline tour in the UK.

Boyish was the recipient of the 2021 LGBTQ+ Emerging Artist Award presented by the Music Forward Foundation as well as the first band to be added to the Bandsintown Big Break Class of 2021. Additionally, the duo was featured on a 16-song 2022 Record Store Day x Vans compilation vinyl entitled Portraits of Her alongside Taylor Swift, Girl in Red, Julien Baker and more.

Boyish have opened for acts such as MUNA, Hippo Campus, Japanese Breakfast, Remo Drive, Ella Jane, The Wombats and played direct support for Spill Tab on her Fall 2022 headline tour across the United States. To wrap up the 2022 they supported Wallice at Brooklyn Made for the Pigeons and Planes “No Ceilings” Showcase and performed at the inaugural Zona Festival in Phoenix, AZ. Boyish is scheduled to release their next project in Spring of 2023.
