ARTIST BACKGROUND

About Boston

Boston developed around Tom Scholz's songwriting and layered studio recordings, with Brad Delp supplying lead vocals and harmonies. Scholz's carefully arranged guitar parts became a defining feature of the group's sound. Epic released the self-titled debut in 1976, after years of demo work. Don't Look Back followed in 1978, and Third Stage appeared through MCA in 1986. The band's history also includes extensive touring and later recordings such as Walk On and Corporate America.
