Pop-rock band POSTER BOY is embarking on a new musical journey with the upcoming release of their debut EP “Not Like I Need It” this Friday.

As their undergraduate years at the University of Minnesota drew to a close, Pivec and Hanson faced a critical decision regarding their musical ambitions: retire with their college band, pursue music semi-professionally or commit to going all in.
