Boyth Throb was formed entirely through Instagram DMs, connecting members like Zach and Evan who previously auditioned for American Idol (Seasons 19 and 20) but were rejected.
The band is actively fundraising and seeking celebrity sponsors to cover the significant costs associated with obtaining an O-1 visa for member Daron, who is currently in India.
Their debut single 'Finger' is designed as a counter-narrative to haters, with the core message that pointing fingers at others reflects back on the accuser.
The group's mission is to provide joy and distraction during 'dark times,' evidenced by their performances at assisted living facilities which they find refreshing and meaningful.
Manager Gino brings K-pop training discipline to the group, preparing them for rigorous performances like singing the national anthem in adverse weather conditions.
