Bad Sports

Bad Sports is a high-energy garage punk band that hails from Denton, Texas. The group was formed in the late 2000s by Orville Neeley (also of OBN IIIs), Daniel Fried (also of Video), and Gregory Rutherford (also of Wax Museums), three friends united by their affection for raw and raucous rock 'n' roll. Their sound is characterized by its frenzied punk roots, melodic hooks, and an unapologetic nod to the rebellious anthems of '70s and '80s punk and power-pop bands. Through a combination of relentless touring and a DIY approach to music creation and distribution, Bad Sports has cultivated a dedicated following both in the United States and abroad.

Over the course of their career, Bad Sports has proved to be prolific, releasing a steady stream of music that captures their dynamic and infectious spirit. Albums like "Bras" (2013) and "Kings of the Weekend" (2011), both released through Dirtnap Records, solidified their reputation for crafting records that are both relentless in their energy and catchy in their songwriting. By 2018, they released "Constant Stimulation," which continued to showcase their growth without losing the edge and raw power that defined their earlier work. Singles like "Living with Secrets" and "Don't Deserve Love" have helped to further penetrate the underground music scene with their gritty charm and unyielding punk attitude. With their latest releases, including "Stuck On Loop" with "Run And Hide," Bad Sports continues to deliver their distinctive blend of nostalgic punk melodies and defiant enthusiasm, ensuring their place as torchbearers in the modern punk landscape.
