Coby Conrad is an artist, manager, songwriter, guitarist, and vocalist based out of Boston, MA. He learned how to play drums at the age of 2 and picked up a guitar at the age of 5 for his school talent show. From these experiences, he knew he wanted to be in the music business. Being born and raised in the small town of Oley, Pennsylvania it was always Coby’s dream to make music that moved people outside of his little town. He finally got the opportunity to do that when he was accepted to Berklee College of Music in 2020 as a guitarist and moved his whole life across the east coast to start anew. Once he arrived on campus, he quickly joined the emerging punk/grunge band HeadFirst in 2021 and has been with the group ever since. The group released their first self produced record “I Believe” in fall of 2021, with the music having heavy influence from jazz all the way to Nirvana.

​

Coby not only plays guitar, singing, and writing for the group, he also takes on managerial duties when the opportunity arises. He and the band have played countless local Boston clubs/venues, won a battle of the bands in Pennsylvania, and brought their music to several venues in the New York music scene. HeadFirst is currently in pre-production for their second full length album. In his time at Berklee he found his passion for helping artists and songwriting. His solo project consists of alternative indie songs about his personal experiences of growing up in a small town, being treated differently for being plus size at such a young age, and the struggles that come with losing 220 lbs. His solo music is set to be produced and released late 2023/ early 2024. Coby hopes to continue to encourage other through art.
