Hey all,
Most of you will have heard or realised, but last year we decided not to continue as a band.
The album is now out and that marks the end of Halfboi as a band project.
As a musician I now work exclusively as a film composer and will start posting work and transforming this account to fit my needs from now on.
Thanks for all the support and love, it was time for something new.
Kisses, Jaïr

This Fucking Sucks
Is the debut album of Halfboi was released yesterday (on streaming services and vinyl).
The first image is the album cover. It’s really special to me because it is a tripple exposure created on 2008 expired Fujifilm 120 film. It shows how Halfboi feels about the current state of the world.
This photo is one of my personal favorites I ever made. Working with Jair is truly a pleasure they make it so easy and photos always turn out epic while co-creating with them.
Thank you Jair @sherp.son and @halfboii for collaborating with me on this amazing album ♥️

If you're still hungry, the album just got released. Go listen to it.
Kinda got released on a whim cause distrokid had problems, anyway here it finally is.

Hey all, PINKY was just released today, so go check it out if you want. I'm really proud of this first single. As you might have noticed, there was not a lot of promo for this single. There probably won't be for any others either. I just really don’t like social media and have never liked it, so I will minimize my interaction with it from now on.
But anyway, go listen to PINKY it’s out on all platforms.
This here is the cover for pinky.
@maaikeronhaar took this special picture. It's triple exposed on vintage 30mm film, an absolutely incredible achievement. All the love to you, Maaike.
The awesome make-up was done by @kikikinks
Records are here! If you want one, they're up for grab and its pay what you think it's worth (+shipping if necessary). Just send me a dm with what you would like to pay, and you can get one.
Super exciting stuff!
The first single PINKY is coming out in 10 days.
This boio told me that we have some valuable photographs here.
Apparently, it's quite rare to get such good shots of @chi_hoogerdijk . I honestly find that quite hard to believe. Look how pretty he is, damn.

FEATURE ON OUR ALBUM
LET YOUR VOICE BE HEARD
WE NEED CHANGE
Hey all, I want to invite every single one of you to scream on our album.
It is on our title track WE NEED CHANGE in particular. It’s a protest song, so in the chorus I want as many voices to scream it with us.
That’s why I want you to record yourself at home, screaming the lyrics and uploading it to our google drive.
We will then use your voice in the actual album, that will be released on all platforms and on (bio)vinyl.
The link with all the info can be found in our bio.
EVERYONE IS WELCOME, so please share this with friends who you think feel the same way.
You don't need a good mic! A phone will suffice as well :)
If you agree that this world could use some change, take the time to record yourself. There is detailed explanation in the google drive, telling you what to do and how.
Let YOUR voice be heard. Particapate now!

I mean look @jelle_beumer
So strong, yet so cute. How he does it is anybody's guess, but this boy has it all.
Ofcourse shot by the amazing @maaikeronhaar during our album shoot. Give this beautiful boy some love <3
Hey hey, it's time for another lill pic from the album shoot. Honestly there are SO MANY good pictures. None of us have ever looked this hot before I don't think. Here's one of Fien, look at the raw power, domination. Yes, queen. Kill me with that look.
More of me @jelle_beumer and @chi_hoogerdijk@maaikeronhaar took these shots ofcourse. WHO ELSE
@kikikinks Did the makeup
And I did the styling :)
SOUND ON
What do you all think of our new song: "Weeeoehuhaaooo uweeoo"
We gotta admit we had a ghostwiter and producer for this one, we can't reach this level of perfection ourselves.
Thanks @van_battum
My mom told me I should let people know this is for legal reasons a joke.
Written and produced by @van_battum
Performed by @van_battum
