The Bad Channels

About Me



"You cannot dream yourself into a character; you must hammer and forge yourself one."-Henry David Thoreau

Roughly two years ago; Simon.J.Sky dreamed of forming a metal band that had the feel of a blues band, a multi-genre band, that works. Now that we've gigged around Cornwall and Devon, we have secured our place as the underdogs of the Cornish music scene, and with our brand of up-tempo stoner rock, be sure to check us out in the near future, watch this space for updates, gigs and merch.

"The best new band I've seen since iPony" - Kayleigh (Go2 Magazine)

"Bad Channels had started their set and sounded good but it was never going to be possible to see them, even if you could get into the room where they were playing. Suffice to say that enough effort was put in by the band to break the snare drum stand belonging to Tongue & Groove." - Jackie (NME)

"You got energy!" - The Surgeons

"I love The Bad Channels. It is a bit worrying how much i love them. More gigs please, more interesting headgear, more breaking lightbulbs and more pint downing mid-set please!" - A Fan

"Better than river dance!" - A Fan

"i saw these guys play and i wasn't expecting much, but it was like a explosion, a shock wave of sound hit me like a nucular bomb, i was just staring at them in awe" - a fan
