The Soft Boys were an English rock band led by guitarist Robyn Hitchcock.

The band formed in 1976 in Cambridge, England and released two albums before disbanding in 1981.[3] Though the Soft Boys’ initial career was brief, their style of psychedelic music and retro folk-rock had a big influence on the development of jangle pop, indie rock, and neo-psychedelia during the 1980s and beyond.[4][5]
