The early years

If there's such a thing as a local buzz band, then Boyhood is it (and I mean "buzz" as in talked about, not distortion, though that applies too). The band - which in essence is bedroom recorder Caylie Runciman - made splash with their bandcamp debut EP and have now ventured out onto the city's stages, as well as Montreal - they'll even be dazzling folks down in Brooklyn come July 2.
