Hailing and wailing from the sunny north-east English coast, Bad Blood is an artist that has no interest in writing and recording songs easily pigeonholed under one genre, instead, preferring to play in the dirty, murky, ill-defined, grey-areas. Bad Blood aims to make the listener the lead character of each song, posing predicaments and dealing in dilemmas; the music-mood and the lyrical content designed to tell a story asking , 'How would you feel if...?', 'What would you do if...?'
Influenced by artists such as Alt-J, 21 pilots, Lana del Ray, Nirvana, and Paul Simon, by films such as 'Red lights', 'Shutter island', 'The game', 'Seven', 'The Usual Suspects' and 'Pitch Perfect' as we'll as books such as 'Fight Club', 'Ego is enemy' and 'Be more pirate'. Bad Blood says the most engaging part of the songwriting process is to be nearly finished, only to ask, “How can I rip this up?”
New single: A birthmark on my hip
Let's be honest, everyone fantasies about being a bit selfish, reckless kn_b from time to time right? Being able to do what you want, when you want, however you want right? Or is that just me? This song was written to reflect those feelings, about being able to go through life with taking any responsibility for your actions. The protagonist has chosen to forego relationships, community and a sense of belonging and instead has taken 'looking after number one' to the extreme.
FORMAT: Digital Single
