bored Approval

The brainchild of Ohio-based singer-songwriter-guitarist Christian Lisik, bored Approval is at once pleasantly charming folk-rock and a lyrical sledgehammer of young-adult displacement, disillusionment, angst and dark humor. Playing off the only partly fictional persona of bored Approval - a disgruntled young professional grappling with themes of 21st Century love, loss and social discordance – bored Approval (Lisik, bassist/vocalist Tom Longworth, and drummer Joe Hahn) present lightning-in-a-bottle snapshots of these tomes; ephemeral moments of longing and sincerity that crash headlong into the unabashedly harsh and obscene.

Debut album, Pending/No Quorum:

bored Approval’s debut album, Pending/No Quorum was produced by the Dimmerer Twins and Don Dixon (REM, Smithereens, Counting Crows, Let’s Active, Tommy Keene) and was released Sept. 16, 2022 on Cherokee Queen Records. Callous yet ethereal, equal parts Highway 61-era Dylan and early 80s Cure, with shades of Courtney Barnett and the Growlers’ nascent beach-goth, the 13 song album features the band’s first singles, “Shoulders” and “Keep Me In Mind.”
