THE BAD 455'S
The Bad455’s are a Texas Rock 'n Blues show band that performs original and blues-rock standards inspired by the “twin trinities”—Stevie Ray Vaughan, Clapton, & Hendrix AND Santana, Setzer & Gibbons. (As you might guess, there’s a lot of guitar). They've played hundreds of dates in just about every place that hosts live music—festivals, restaurants, outdoor events, private parties, bars, wineries, meaderies, breweries, bars, taverns, honky-tonks, saloons, roadhouses, and First Fridays.
The Bad455’s are a rock ‘n roll force of nature. This guitar-based rock band fuses psychedelic sounds with a Texas sensibility. Based out of College Station, Texas, The Bad455’s perform throughout the “shadow” cast between Austin, Houston, and Dallas. Entertaining and electrifying audiences with their unique brand of “jump, stomp & shuffle” they always bring the show to the people.
The Bad455’s are a rockin’ trio that electrifies! Their high-energy brand of enthusiasm, virtuosity, raw talent, and Texas style positively excites audiences everywhere they play.
Guaranteed to rock the house!
The Bad455’s came together on the streets of Bryan, Texas, at a First Friday a few years ago. Our guitarist was busking for a small crowd on the sidewalk. Two of our bandmates were driving by when the clouds parted and a beam of sunlight descended on the scene. Our sound engineer screamed to our bass player, “Stop the truck! We just found our guitar player!”
We were getting the band together!
