Lucky Boys Confusion is a rock music band from the western suburbs of Chicago. Hailing from DuPage County, the band's music is a mix of rock, punk, ska, and hip hop. The band consists of vocalist Kaustubh "Stubhy" Pandav, guitarist/vocalist Adam Krier, bassist Jason Schultejann, and drummer Ryan Fergus. Guitarist and founding member Joe Sell (October 16, 1978 – May 15, 2012) was member of the band until his death. Pandav and Krier write the majority of the band's songs.
Lucky Boys Confusion formed in 1997 shortly after the breakups of Pandav and Fergus's band, Farmboy, and Krier and Sell's band, Spinning Jenny. After recruiting Schultejann on bass, the group quickly released an EP, What Gets Me High. In late 1998, they released their first full-length album, Growing Out Of It, under their own label, Townstyle Records. The album contained the song "Dumb Pop Song," which had gained airplay on Chicago alternative rock station Q101. In 2000, the band released the The Soapbox Spectacle, featuring a new version of "Fred Astaire", and five new songs. During this time, the band recorded a video for "Dumb Pop Song".
In 2000, the band was signed by Elektra Records. They headed to California in the fall of 2000 to begin recording the album Throwing the Game, which was released on May 8, 2001. It featured new versions of songs from their first two releases and several new songs, including a cover of Jocelyn Enriquez's "Do You Miss Me?" The band also released a video for the song "Bossman" featuring Beenie Man. In 2008, "Bossman" was featured in a commercial for the gum Extra.
