The Bad Backs New Recording North East x South West Is Available NOW!
The Bad Backs REVIEWS
The Bad Backs are unlike any band out there right now.
These Americana Roots-Rockers have a timeless sound driven by the seasoned songwriting of Stan Chew and Chris Pimentel. Their tight harmonies, the rock-solid rhythm anchored by drummer Tim Sweeney, and the down-home Alt-Country Rock aesthetic are on full display with their latest release, NORTH EAST X SOUTH WEST.
Fans of Folk Rock, Alt-Country, Americana and of course, The Beatles will not be disappointed.

North East X South West released in 2024
When The Bad Backs formed, they knew what sound they were going for, both in their songs and in their records.
With a love of the southwestern music scene and sound, The Bad Backs set out to capture that SW essence with respect and authenticity while being true to their New England-ness.
Latino Folk, Southwestern Ballad, SW Country Rock and RnB, all done in The Bad Backs style.
Back In Time released in 2023
This sophomore record set a departure point towards a richer sound and a more expansive approach to their writing and playing.
The genres opened wide in Back In Time ranging from Rockabilly, RnB, and American Folk/Roots Rock.
By now, producer, Charlie Chamberlain became musically invested in The Bad Backs sound and the results, dead on the mark.
L5/S1 released in 2022
The first record for Go To Your Room records, L5/S1 was setting the bar. The Bad Backs had played together in various forms for their entire careers and had the playing down, but in a new band with an original format...they were finding their way.
From song writing to arranging and working with a new producer, Charlie Chamberlain, this is the initial result. L5/S1 set the stage.
