On this episode of The New Wave Music Podcast, Steve sits down with Brian Chatton, founding member and creative force behind Boys Don’t Cry. Brian takes us through the band’s early days, the origin of their name, and the playful nod to The Cure on their second album. We revisit the massive global success of “I Wanna Be a Cowboy,” how it reshaped the band’s trajectory, and the unforgettable (and sometimes bizarre) live moments that came along the way.
Brian also gives us an inside look at the making of the brand-new album 4Play. He shares the inspirations behind the project and breaks down several key tracks, including “I Was Just Thinking About Sex (At the Time),” “Rescue Me,”and the new single “When I Think About You” featuring Wade Hubbard. We discuss collaborations, creative surprises, and which track stands out most to him on the new record.
Whether you’re a longtime fan or discovering Boys Don’t Cry for the first time, this episode offers a fun, insightful look into the band’s history, humor, and newest musical chapter.
