About Johnny Boy
Johnny Boy are a London-based two-piece, comprising of Lolly Hayes and Davo. They rely heavily on loops to supplement guitars and, quite often, dreamy vocals which results in the sort of "Wall of Sound" effect that Phil Spector would be proud of.
They caught the attention of James Dean Bradfield of the Manic Street Preachers, who produced the two tracks released as singles: Johnny Boy Theme and You Are The Generation Who Bought More Shoes And You Get What You Deserve. Both of these tracks received critical acclaim; You Are The Generation made it onto various Best Single of 2004 lists and even Johnny Marr's Best Album list!
Despite this, Johnny Boy have not found success in their native UK. They parted company with Vertigo Records shortly before their eponymous album was due to be released after Vertigo's lack of promotion saw You Are The Generation chart at a disappointing Number 50 in the UK singles chart. They simply disappeared into the wilderness...
However, 2006 has seen them return, albeit in a fairly limited manner. The album eventually surfaced on Sweden's Wild Kingdom records, and they played an extremely successful gig in London in June.
Johnny Boy is also the name of an American punk band who released an album entitled 'Champagne Dance Party'.
