Young Wonder were an Irish electro-pop duo from Cork. [1] [2]

Contents

Career

Ian Ring is from Ballintemple and Rachel Koeman is from Watergrasshill, with a Dutch father. They met in 2012, and played at Castlepalooza in that year, and at the 2013 Latitude Festival. [3] Their debut album, Birth, was nominated for the Choice Music Prize; The Irish Times called it "evocative and powerful, a run of songs that glisten from both slick studio shaping and some strong, deft hooks." [4] By 2019 the duo had separated, with Ring making music under the name "Boku." [5]
