Biography

Dennes Dale Boon (April 1, 1958 – December 22, 1985), commonly known as D. Boon, was an American musician, best known as the guitarist, singer and songwriter of the punk rock trio Minutemen (formed by previous members of the Reactionaries). He formed Minutemen in 1980 with bassist Mike Watt and drummer George Hurley. Minutemen were known for their politically-charged lyrics and energetic, fast-paced music, and they released several influential records during their career. Despite his early death in an auto accident, Boon's contributions to punk rock and independent music have been widely recognized. He is remembered as an important figure in the history of these genres and as one of the most technically accomplished American punk guitarists of his era.
