Boboski & Brakus is a timeless indie rock duo
formed by Ben Boboski and Tony Brakus, who first started writing and recording music together in the early 1980s. Capturing raw, heartfelt energy in demos during their initial run, the pair parted ways around 1984 before reuniting in 2014 to revive their authentic sound with renewed passion and fresh creativity.
Their music blends classic guitar-driven indie rock with memorable hooks, introspective lyrics, and an undeniable chemistry that resonates with fans of underground and alternative rock scenes.
Reunited Indie Rock Duo Behind “By A Thread”
The duo’s enduring appeal lies in their genuine storytelling and unpolished, organic approach
—songs that feel both nostalgic and immediate. Standout track “By A Thread” (complete with an official music video) captures raw emotion and resilience, while “Not For You” delivers scathing, hook-filled intensity.
These releases showcase their ability
to craft compelling indie rock anthems that stand the test of time, appealing to listeners who crave authentic, guitar-centric music without overproduction.
