ABOUT
Forged from the fires of the London music scene in 2017, The Bad Day have developed a new genre; described as “Springsteen meets The Killers”
The band’s first album came out in 2021 on two labels; Lunaria in the U.K. and P-Vine in Japan. The album was a critical success picking up some cool awards and getting international airplay on BBC, Planet Rock and many others in Japan and Brazil.
The second album came out June 3rd and is very different; a concept album. All the songs flow into each other and tell a tragic story of freedom and love. The first single from the album won Classic Rock Magazine’s Track Of The Week.
