Boketto the Wolf

Filled with highly charged emotional content, a fully utilized dynamic range, and engaging, vocal melodies from Julia Maree, Boston-based folk-rockers Boketto the Wolf ensure that their formidable debut EP, Sleepless, lives up to its title. Leading with its stand-out track, "Float Back to Me", which revitalizes the lost art of the 6/8 power ballad, Sleepless is a neatly packaged, 5-track album that perfectly sums up the reach and character of the band. This haunting debut ensures that you will be "floating back" to it time and time again. Catch Boketto the Wolf, joined by Drew Angus, Alternate Weekends, and The Silent Wild at P.A.s Lounge on Saturday, 12/9. -Brian Varneke - Deli Magazine Boston

You may remember Boston alt-folk/rockers, Boketto the Wolf, from our coverage of their debut EP, Sleepless back in December. Since we left them, they have certainly been busy, with a SXSW Texas tour and a brand new single debuting today, here at The Deli. "Losing My Cool" is another shining example of what brought Boketto to our attention in the first place: unique, catchy, yet emotional songwriting and vocals, mixed with dynamic instrumentals, never overstated. Recorded at Power Station New England by Evan Bakke (Pinwheel, Prinze George, Joss Stone), it is an ode to young relationships, an anthem for anyone who has tried to play it cool and failed. Hit the link below to check out "Losing My Cool" and catch Boketto the Wolf at Thunder Road on June 6/3 (The Boston Pride Kickoff) or Midway Cafe 6/20. -Brian Varneke - The Deli NYC
