Bad Sounds is an ebullient blend of funk, hip-hop, and indie pop, forging a sound that's as unconventional as it is infectious. Hailing from the vibrant music scene of Bristol, UK, the band consists of brothers Ewan and Callum Merrett at its core, complemented by a dynamic group of musicians that help translate their genre-meshing creations from studio to stage. Their emergence in the music world has seen them lauded for their eclectic style and feel-good vibes that are reminiscent of the 70s funk grooves interwoven with a modern twist.

Since stepping onto the scene, Bad Sounds have established themselves as a band with a penchant for catchy hooks and a live presence that's hard to forget. Their discographical journey through recent releases such as "Beggin'," "Heart Attacks," and "Nu Me Nu Yu" demonstrates an evolution in their sound, with each track embodying their signature blend of playful lyricism and head-nodding beats. The "Escaping from a Violent Time" series serves as a testament to the band's conceptual depth, delivering a narrative journey across two volumes that entwine their personal experiences with broader social commentary. Through both critical acclaim and a growing fanbase, Bad Sounds have proven that they're not just a fleeting thrill but a band with the chops to carve out their own niche in the music landscape.
