The Boggs United States
Biography
The Boggs is an independent rock band from New York City that formed in 2001. Their debut album We Are The Boggs We Are (Arena Rock Recording Co.) was a critically acclaimed re-telling of Harry Smith’s Anthology of American Folk Music that the band mockingly dubbed ‘Archival no-wave’. The Boggs also contributed a compilation track for This Is Next Year: A Brooklyn-Based Compilation in 2001 (Arena Rock Recording Co.). The follow-up, Stitches, recast the band’s sound as a type of acoustic post-punk.
