Every era needs its boy band, and American-Canadian five-piece PRETTYMUCH are stepping up to fill the shoes for Gen Z.

Brought together by music mogul Simon Cowell three years ago, Brandon Arreaga, Edwin Honoret, Austin Porter, Nick Mara and Zion Kuwonu have since crafted their own brand of high-energy pop, packed with rich harmonies, infectious melodies and lyrics that map out the highs and lows of growing up in 2019.

For a band dedicated to celebrating individuality and freedom of expression, it’s only right we got to know the boys a little better one-on-one. For Rollacoaster AW19, Yale Breslin speaks to PRETTYMUCH about their whirlwind journeys so far, joining forces as a group and what’s to come.

Rollacoaster magazine AW19 ships in September. Pre-order the issue now!
