Rooted in Midwest punk rock, Bad Year formed in 2019 and calls Milwaukee home. Inspired by heartbreak, angst, and self-reformation, Bad Year injects the scene with anthemic chorus hooks and brutal optimism. In the spirit of promoting positive aspects of mental health, their cathartic melodies are known for freely inspiring listeners with a sense of empathy, mutual understanding and hope. Mike, Joey, and Sean put a fresh, more decorated feel on musical incarnations and lived experiences of the past.
