Please Read!

It appears as though our web host decided to FILTER OUT MYSPACE ALERTS! So, if you submitted a friend request, or sent a message that never got answered, it's not 'cause we're jerks! Apparently, friend requests expire after awhile, so if that happened, please add us again, or drop us a line. Thanks!!!

and now, on with our regularly scheduled bio...

Band bios are boring, and people usually skip them, anyway. Here's the short version:

Big Daddy Chrome is a rock and roll band from Baltimore/DC. We fuse everything from traditional rock and roll, hardcore, country, punk, rockabilly, and anything else that fits, into our own unique blend of rock. We've heard "Merle Haggard meets Motorhead," "Cash meets Clash," and Mike's personal favorite, "Sick of it All meets Lynyrd Skynyrd." We'll take any of those. We'll play anywhere, any time - have Marshalls, will travel.

We're presently signed with Workers United Records , and are eagerly awaiting any endorsement contracts that would enable us to quit our jobs and buy mansions. Our new disc, "Bad Timing," is available at all of our live shows, or online at the following locations:
Amazon.Com
Interpunk
Target
Rhythm Online in Europe
