About The Boo Radleys

The Boo Radleys walk a crooked line between overdriven shoegaze and breezy dream pop. Combining guitarist Martin Carr's off-the-beam songwriting and Sice's choirboy-pure vocals, they began making blown-out noise rock on 1990's Ichabod & I, then gradually folded in influences like hip-hop, dub, orchestral pop, psychedelia, and electronica on a series of singles, EPs, and albums coming to fruition with 1993's Giant Steps, then hitting the mainstream on 1995's chart-topping Wake Up! The band split in 1999, but they reconvened roughly 20 years later without Carr to record new music. The results -- rapidly realized new albums like 2022's Keep On with Falling and 2023's Eight -- proved that the group's mix of classic melodies, crafty hooks, and uplifting choruses still sounds just as good decades later.
