PRESS:
"With Stars for Anyone, The Boneless Children Foundation has created a massive album that swerves and boogies with classic rock n' roll riffs and delightfully quirky and engaging lyrics." --Jeff Bissell, Wiretap Music
"A mix of poetry, punk, glam rock – they know how to put on a good show." -- Una LaMarche, Black Book Online
"They make a plenty-noisy punk-rock racket, tempered by humor and just the right touch of melody.” --Nate Seltenreich, The East Bay Express
Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, The Boneless Children Foundation's music ranges from simple, poetic creations to hard-hitting punk rock sideshows. Born & raised in St. Louis, Missouri, San Francisco transplant David Sophia
leads his band of musical malcontents through the twists and turns of the perilous modern music environment. This group has developed a unique sound that draws comparison to The Talking Heads, The Police, The Who, and The Unicorns.
But of course don't take anyone else's word for it; listen with your own ears! That's what they're there for... so use them well, friends...
With the ever-lovely bassist Jonathan Kepke and the mysterious
J. Logan Barrier on drums, the Boneless Children Foundation are. Yes, they are.
The Boneless Children Foundation -
