BOHNES

Announces Highly Anticipated

First Album

206 - Act One

Due Out March 30, 2018

 

 

 

February 20, 2018 - New York, NY - After premiering a trio of hit singles ("Six Feet Under", "My Friends", "702") and a Remix EP, BOHNES has finally announced the upcoming release of his highly anticipated debut album, 206 - Act One. The news broke to Coffin Club members first and today he shares with you. The voice behind BOHNES, Alexander DeLeon writes:

 

Friends,

 

Who are you? Underneath it all. Underneath the madness of everyday life. Underneath the clothes and masks that you wear. Under the skin that gently rests over you. Who are you at your core? What makes you tick? What makes you love? What makes you push forward?

 

These are questions that I asked myself before making this album. I didn't know what I was looking for...but I knew I needed to find it. I traveled to 75 countries. I met people. I heard their stories. I felt empathy. I gained knowledge. I gained perspective. The wildest part of all was that along this journey a crazy thing happened...I found my bones.

 

I discovered who I was. I found what I was underneath. Under all the scars, under the light, under the darkness, under it all. For the first time, I saw my bones. 

 

There are 206 of them in me. Together they make who I am, who I have been and most importantly, who I was meant to be. 

 

This is what wrote this album. I wrote this album about my bones in hopes that it would encourage people to find their own. I wrote this album about the journey to discovery. I wrote this album for me.  I wrote this album for you. This album isn't just a collection of studio sessions...This album is a collection of days lived, hands held, broken hearts, and memories made. 

 

Life is a story.  It is a movie.  It is a brilliant theatrical piece.  It is both a comedy and a tragedy. It is victory and defeat. It is glory and suffering. We are all actors in a Shakespearean play, and I wouldn't have it any other way. I realized that indeed, I was lost...But I realized that being lost was what made me feel found. 

 

Welcome to my personal catacomb. Welcome to my bones. Welcome to 206. Act I awaits...

 

BOHNES, the new solo project from Alexander DeLeon (The Cab) has been captivating fans and press alike over the last year garnering feature for the released singles with outlets like NYLON, Earmilk, Ones to Watch, Huffington Post, Alternative Press and more along with securing the #1 Spot on the HypeM chart for the Milk N Cooks Remix of "My Friends." This will be the first release of a two-part series and is due out March 30, 2018. For more information and access to exclusive sneak peeks, be sure to head to https://www.bohnesofficial.com/.

 

With producers and collaborators including Malay, Matt Johnson (Matt and Kim), Grandson, Mitchy Collins (Lovelytheband) and Bryan Sammis (The Neighbourhood, La Bouquet), this album is sonically diverse, pulling from various inspirations both musically and emotionally. While Alexander shies away from the term 'concept album' for this first BOHNES project, there is a consistent threading of form and function when it comes to themes and moods explored song to song.

1. 12 Rounds

2. Six Feet Under

He has traveled to every continent and has filmed or photographed content in over 65 countries. Through BOHNES, Alexander is exploring both the push and pulls in life as a whole and in the minute-to-minute connections and relationships we form each day.

=======================

Dear Daily Signal Reader,

Last week, a court in Ohio ordered a 17-year-old girl to be taken from her parents’ custody and given to grandparents because the parents refuse to authorize hormone treatments and surgeries she wishes to undergo in order to “transition” from female to “male,” and because the parents refuse to address her by the masculine name she has given herself or refer to her using male pronouns.

In this morning’s Daily Signal email, you probably saw Ryan Anderson’s essay about this. In that piece, Ryan details the four-step “transition” program that activists are promoting for children. Ryan’s essay is drawn from his new book—released today—When Harry Became Sally: Responding to the Transgender Moment. I cannot recommend Ryan’s book more highly. And I urge you to order a copy now, read it, and prepare for what lies ahead.

Who can doubt that soon there will be a case like this one in virtually all other respects, but involving a 12- or 13-year-old girl or boy who is entering puberty and seeking puberty-blocking hormones?

Then, surely, there will be a case involving, say an 8- or 9-year-old whose teacher reports that the child is “transgender,” triggering the actions of a state child protective agency to intervene to remove the child from custody of parents who refuse to honor his or her transgender identity.

Then it will be a 5-year-old—or even younger—child who is already, according to a social worker, exhibiting clear signs of being transgender who is allegedly at risk from parents who pose a threat to the child because they reject gender ideology or transgender identity.

You need to prepare for these cases, and that’s why you need to read Ryan’s book.

Gender dysphoria is real. People who experience it deserve to be treated with compassion, kindness, and respect―just like everyone else. It is wrong to despise them, ridicule them, or disrespect them in other ways.

As Ryan Anderson shows in his rigorously argued critique of transgender ideology, we can speak and stand up for the truth while loving those who identify as transgender as our neighbors. When Harry Became Sally confirms Anderson’s standing as one of our nation’s most gifted young intellectuals, and without doubt the most fearless.

Thank you,
