Bio
The Boy Bathing is an NYC-based indie band fronted by David Hurwitz. Hurwitz has toured under the moniker since 2004. The band's music focuses on imaginative lyricism and wistful story-telling wrapped around infectious melodies, and a live performance that borders on theatrical. Their first full-length record, A Fire to Make Preparations, was released independently last summer with the help of Team Clermont and Orchard Distribution. Other songs of their’s are featured on European and US compilations with The Arcade Fire, Sufjan Stevens and Jens Lenkman, and they have performed with Kevin Devine, Apollo Sunshine, Crooked Fingers, and The Honorary Title.
In 2009, the band signed to Canon Records, and is planning to tour, record, repeat.



Press
Deli Magazine
"On their strong 2008 release A Fire to Make Preparations, Boy Bathing is able to capture glimpses of their tightrope walk above and around traditional song structures and conventional lo-fi arrangements."



Amplifier Magazine
"As A Fire to Make Preparations proves again and again, lyrics may be The Boy Bathing's strongest suit. Whether whispered, cooed or snarled, Hurwitz's words delight with their disarming blend of unpredictability, insight and jubilant resignation."



La Blogotheque
"They succeeded in the incredible intense songs, great storytelling, perfect harmony between the singer's voice and the little fairy who sings behind him. If we had a plane ticket from New York to Paris in our hands we would offer it to them immediately."
