Bojibian

Bojibian (pronounced: bo-JIB-ee-an) originated in Philadelphia in early-2008 with members hailing from Washington, DC, Connecticut and Japan. Stylistically, the group draws from many different influences, at times sounding like some sort of post-modern mash-up of rock, pop, post-punk, classic rock, and arena rock…or something like that. Within a year of formation, the band has released two EPs, obtained consistent radio airplay throughout a dozen stations across the U.S., has been featured in local, regional and national press outlets, toured consistently through six states in the mid-Atlantic region, and has been recognized as one of the fastest-growing acts to watch this year by venues, members of the media and various industry professionals.
