About Me

Finally finding each other after many years in the music industry, the six members of "Badland" have fused to form a band the business has been waiting for ! Original songs with searing melodies and exquisite guitar work, bathed in wonderful keyboards and underpinned by a rhythm section that can truly be described as "powerhouse".From the ashes of eighties NWOBHM legends "Scorched Earth", augmented by Midlands musicians of the finest calibre, "Badland" have arrived just in time to re-ignite the dying embers of real rock music.Out on the road anytime soon, "Badland" will be bringing their own unique brand of music to your neighbourhood . . . make sure you're there to welcome them !
