About Me

MyGen Profile Generator MyGen Profile Generator



180 PROOF AMERICAN MADE
ROCK-N-ROOTS MUSIC SINCE 2001
Real music with a rough edge and uncut flavor, made by real people who never dip their toes in the mainstream. See, we fly the flags of bands who believe in blazing their own trails and making music full of swagger, passion and individuality. Music that deals in true life, that soundtracks the good times and the bad, and knows when to wink danger and heartache in the eye.
Big Bender is a Roots Music company with a Cow-Punk meets Rock-N-Roll Attitude!
