Boy Harsher is an American synthpop/darkwave duo, Jae Matthews and Augustus Muller, formed in 2013 and known for moody analog synths, cold-wave rhythms and cinematic visuals. The duo signed to Atlantic Records for their album 'Get Mean,' a rare major-label bet on the darkwave underground, and their sold-out club shows have made them a touchstone act for PNW fans of goth-adjacent electronic music.

What listeners say
Concert reviews describe Boy Harsher as a captivating, atmospheric live act with a magnetic frontwoman, including several sold-out-crowd write-ups calling their sets unforgettable. At least one review flagged a show undercut by an all-dark lighting gimmick that put style ahead of substance, so the reception isn't universal.
