ABOUT THE BANDS
Gully Boys
“Picked to Click 2018: Gully Boys are Minnesota’s best new band” —City Pages
Born from passion, Kathy, Nadirah and Natalie make up the Minneapolis 3-piece that Gully Boys is today. Gully Boys’ melodic tunes and raw lyrics make it hard to believe that merely two years ago, none of them knew how to play their instruments. Drawing inspiration from a multitude of musical back grounds, Gully Boys transcends genre. Through hard work, diligent practice and fresh enthusiasm Gully Boys have recorded their first LP Gully Boys Dont Cry released August 12th.
