NOT A BOYS NAME is the alter ego of Sydney musician Dave Jenkins Jr. It’s a reminder for Dave to create without concerning himself with the consequences, and acts as a way to avoid being pigeonholed, creatively or otherwise. Born in a sleepy coastal town outside of Sydney, Dave has spent his entire life involved with music in one way or another. His dad was a drummer, and he grew up around a tight-knit circle of friends who were obsessed with music of all genres. Dave spent much of his teen years tinkering away with recording equipment and wrote many psychedelic pop songs in his bedroom. This is where his love of DIY recording first took shape. NOT A BOYS NAME’s self-produced EP “The Internet Sucks” served as an appetiser for what Jenkins Jr is cooking up for the future. Dave is currently mixing his sophomore EP and working on a visually stimulating live show to present to the world when the veil of COVID has lifted and live music can thrive again.
