Infinity Song is an American soft rock/R&B band composed of siblings Abraham, Angel, Israel and Momo Boyd. Based in New York City, the group has released three albums under record label Roc Nation.[1]
Infinity Song is a family band made up of members Abraham, Angel, Israel and Momo Boyd.[2] [3] The four siblings grew up in Detroit, Michigan and later moved to New York City performing in a choir directed by their father, John Boyd,[4] and their early home life was filled with "singing and writing refrains".[5] In the mid-2010s, the band started performing around the city, particularly in Bethesda Terrace in Central Park, Grand Central Station, and Times Square.[5] In 2014, they had a chance encounter with Tori Kelly, which resulted in their appearing on The View.[4] In 2016, director Jeymes Samuel sent a video clip that he had seen of the band busking in Central Park to Jay Z.[6] The band was then invited to perform for Jay-Z at the offices of his Roc Nation record label,[2] after which Jay Z signed them to a recording contract.[2] [5] [6] The band thereafter appeared on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert and Good Morning America.[4] Through family friend Jon Batiste, the band also became connected with Kanye West, and "made substantial contributions to West's gospel-tinged Jesus Is King album", for which they participated in several capacities including writing and producing songs and participating in West's Sunday Service Choir.[2]
The band's 2020 album, Mad Love, was reviewed in American Songwriter, which praised the album, saying: "It sways, crashes, ducks and dives. But what's even better than the sonic movements it provides is the familial closeness the record ushers into a room".[5] While calling the band's songs heartfelt, colorful, and kind, the review also noted "an expertise and a tight understanding of composition".[5] Bossip's 2020 review said that Infinity Song "touch the sky with Hov approved heavenly harmonies on debut Album Mad Love… just pure delectable, soulful, undeniably beautiful music to our ears".[7] The Deluxe, a extended version of their Mad Love album, followed in 2021,[4] and in 2023, Infinity Song released their EP, Metamorphosis, including six original songs and a cover of the Fleetwood Mac song, "Dreams".[2] Their song, "Hater's Anthem", went viral on TikTok.[2] In February 2024, Uproxx listed the band as one of its "best bets for best new artist at the 2025 Grammys", praising their "breezy arrangements and lush harmonies", and saying in their review that the band's records "sound right at home between cuts from The Byrds, Joni Mitchell, Buffalo Springfield and other Laurel Canyon legends".[6] In March 2024, the band announced their first world tour.[8]
