The Boggs -- vocalist/guitarist Jason Friedman, slide guitarist Zeke Healy, drummer Brad Conroy, and banjo player Phil Roebuck -- began playing their raw, stripped-down version of folk on street corners and subway platforms in Brooklyn, NY, during the winter of 2001. After playing a gig at New York's Mercury Lounge the following spring, Arena Rock signed the band. The label released its debut, We Are the Boggs We Are, in February 2002. ~ Kenyon Hopkin, All Music Guide
