Junior Boys – the Hamilton, Ontario duo of Jeremy Greenspan and Matt Didemus – announce their first North American headline tour in seven years in anticipation of new music later this year. Fusing disco, soul and modern R&B with New Wave, pop and techno, Junior Boys have released five albums, and numerous EPs over two decades. 2023 will mark the 20th anniversary of Junior Boys’ first release  “Birthday/Last Exit” EP on Kin Records. In keeping with that celebratory mood, the tour will feature an expanded band performing songs from all five albums and other rarities. 
 
Their 2004 debut Last Exit and its follow up So This Is Goodbye, while very well received at the time, have now gained a cult-like following, as their distinctive style seems to have clearly prefigured the digital R&B/synthpop blend so omnipresent within popular music of the last few years. The three following albums were each praised for the increasing emphasis placed on sonic wizardry and non-traditional songcraft. Their last album Big Black Coat, released in 2016, was their most overt homage to the techno influence of their youth. It was universally heralded as one of the best records of their career and of the of the best electronic releases of the year 2016.
