Hailing from Chicago and its South Suburbs, the members of Ratboys have no qualms scurrying through the streets to meet up and make music. What started out as a spacey, acoustic two-piece playing secret shows in dorm rooms, has morphed into a post-country foursome that simply cannot deny the power of rodent rock. They recorded their debut, AOID at The Owlery in Chicago, released earlier this year on Topshelf Records. Ratboys will tour throughout the southern U.S. in January wtih The Island of Misfit Toys (Broken World Media) and Woozy (Community Records/Exploding In Sound).
