**Brad Sucks** (real name Brad Turcotte) is a Canadian indie rock/electronic artist known for his self-aware lyrics, DIY ethic, and refusal to take himself too seriously. Hailing from Ottawa, he’s built a cult following since the early 2000s by blending crunchy guitar riffs, synth hooks, and dry humor into tracks like "Dirtbag" and "Making Me Nervous." Brad’s music often explores themes of insecurity and sarcastic self-reflection, delivered with a laid-back charm that feels like hanging out with your most relatable slacker friend.
What makes Brad stand out is his commitment to open creativity—he’s released much of his work (including stems and vocals) under Creative Commons licenses, inviting fans to remix and reuse his music freely. This collaborative spirit shines in tracks like the "Dirtbag" remixes and "Making Me Nervous (Royale BR Remix)," which reimagine his lo-fi alt-rock vibes through fresh electronic lenses. Whether he’s mellowing out or leaning into gritty indie energy, Brad Sucks nails the art of turning personal flaws into weirdly catchy anthems.
