All four had fronted their own groups and became friends after regularly sharing the stage at gigs.
After winning the 2009 Unearthed competition, they gained a performance spot at the Australasian music festival Homebake. In 2010, Tim's brother Jon Hart joined the band as an official member; contributing vocals, mandolin, banjo and keyboards. They toured Australia opening for Angus and Julia Stone as a three-piece, with Tarasenko and Hart in London playing in Laura Marling's backing band. In May 2010, Boy & Bear released their debut extended play, With Emperor Antarctica.

She Got Body She Got Soul
Boy & Bear Lyrics
Last night I went out disco dancing
Saw a foxy girl out on the floor
She's got rhythm, she's got something I need
She's got rhythm, she's got something I need
She came to my table
We both ordered something to drink (something to drink)
And before you know it, what do you think
The music started playin'
Ooh, the music got us so excited
Had to get up on our feet
She's got rhythm, she's got something I need
She's got rhythm, she's got something I need
The place was near closing
I offered to take her home (to take her home)
But she was with someone and left me alone
But I still remember
Ooh, I know I never will forget her
And I hope I get to see her again
She's got rhythm, she's got something I need (never will forget her)
She's got rhythm, she's got something I need (never will forget her)
She's got rhythm, she's got something I need (never will forget her)
She's got rhythm, she's got something I need (never will forget her)
She's got rhythm, she's got something I need (never will forget her)
Hey hey, hey hey
Hey hey (never will forget her)
Saw a foxy girl out on the floor
She's got rhythm, she's got something I need
She's got rhythm, she's got something I need
She came to my table
We both ordered something to drink (something to drink)
And before you know it, what do you think
The music started playin'
Ooh, the music got us so excited
Had to get up on our feet
She's got rhythm, she's got something I need
She's got rhythm, she's got something I need
The place was near closing
I offered to take her home (to take her home)
But she was with someone and left me alone
But I still remember
Ooh, I know I never will forget her
And I hope I get to see her again
She's got rhythm, she's got something I need (never will forget her)
She's got rhythm, she's got something I need (never will forget her)
She's got rhythm, she's got something I need (never will forget her)
She's got rhythm, she's got something I need (never will forget her)
She's got rhythm, she's got something I need (never will forget her)
Hey hey, hey hey
Hey hey (never will forget her)
