Choir Boy

Adam Klopp’s Salt Lake City project, Choir Boy, has long occupied a niche corner of the underground with its shimmering, melancholic synth-pop and operatic vocals. While their sound leans heavily on 4AD-era nostalgia, it’s their recent pairing with AFI for a massive 2026 North American tour that signals a shift from cult status to legacy-adjacent visibility. The conviction score is climbing as they bridge the gap between goth-pop purists and mainstream alternative audiences. Watch for how this high-profile stage exposure translates to their next studio output.
