Charlottesville, Virginia’s New Boss is the brainchild of guitarist Thomas Dean (Order, Invisible Hand). The lineup is rounded out by Parker Smith (drums, also Order), Jordan Perry (guitar/vocals, Eat Forever, My Mind), Scott Ritchie (bass, Errantry, Great Dads), Nick Rubin (keys), and Devon Sproule (vocals).

Since 2015 New Boss has churned out recordings and has played spots like Raleigh’s Slim’s, Chapel Hill’s Cave, and DC’s Rock ‘n Roll Hotel, as well as the fabled 9:30 Club.
