There are two artists called (the) Union Boys:
1) A 1940's folk group put together to record for the Asch label
2) A punk band from Boston

1) The Union Boys were a studio group put together in March 1944 by New York City folk label Asch Records to record pro-labor and anti-fascist songs. Produced by Alan Lomax, the tracks were released on the 3 disc collection, Songs for Victory: Music for Political Action, which included a collaboration with Woody Guthrie and Cisco Houston. Some five decades after The Union Boys sole release, their album's subtitle was borrowed by Bear Family Records for it's ten CD retrospective, Songs for Political Action: Folk Music, Topical Songs and the American Left.

2) The Union Boys started back in November 2008. We made alot of mistakes and changes in that time. We recorded our demo at our high school with the help of a great teacher, then set out into Boston with iron heads. After 2 years of playing shows and making connections we finally got together with the legendary Richard Marr at Galaxy Park Studios. Together we released a our newest E.P. 'Til Death Do Us Part. We have played with bands such as: The Acrobrats, Burning Streets, Beantown Boozehounds, Refuse Resist, Yesterdays Heroes, and many many more! We look forward to coming to a town near you soon!
