Los Angeles post-grunge outfit Badflower have gained a meaningful reputation for hard-hitting and melodic rock anthems covering themes around mental health and addiction. Comprising singer/guitarist Josh Katz, guitarist Joey Morrow, bassist Alex Espiritu, and drummer Anthony Sonetti, Badflower's tendency to address human vulnerability makes them a powerful example of how the hard rock genre has evolved in the 21st Century.
Formed in Northridge, California, in 2008, Badflower started out under the name the Cartunes with Katz and Morrow meeting in music school. They soon changed their name and recruited Espiritu and Sonetti to round out the lineup. After gigging around Los Angeles, Badflower found the attention of former NSYNC member Lance Bass, who plugged them on his SiriusXM radio show.
In 2013, Badflower released their debut EP, About A Girl. In 2016, Badflower released their second EP, Temper, via Hundred Handed Inc. The EP featured the single "Animal." In 2018, Badflower had a hit single with "Ghost," which unflinchingly discussed subjects like depression and self-harm.
"Ghost" found a significant audience and peaked at No. 11 on Billboard's Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart. "Ghost" was also certified Gold by the RIAA. "I was depressed and thinking about self-harm. So I just wrote it," Katz told Loudwire about "Ghost." "I played out the whole scenario and put it into a song because that's what writers do, I suppose. I didn't even know if it was gonna go on the album. I was sorta hesitant to even show it to the rest of my band, but everyone heard it and loved it."
In 2017, Badflower hit the road on the Rock 'N' Roll Now tour alongside Bleeker, Beware Of Darkness and Red Sun Rising. The same year, they began work on their debut studio album, 2019's OK, I'm Sick, which Loudwire named one of the 50 best rock albums of that year. In 2020, Badflower released "30" on Katz's 30th birthday.
Badflower followed up their debut with 2021's This Is How The World Ends, which featured the singles "Family," "Don't Hate Me," "Fukboi," and "Johnny Wants To Fight." Loudwire ranked This Is How The World Ends as the 38th best rock/metal album of 2021. Catch Badflower on tour when they come to a city near you.
This band never ceases to amaze me! I’ve seen them almost a dozen times. And will continue to see them every time they’re around as long as my band is not touring. Every show is better than the last. Love these guys.
Saw them for the first time for a radio concert in Philly. They are even better in person than on the radio. They’ve gained a new fan and I’m telling all my friends! Can’t wait for the new album. And for them to hit the east coast again!
I keep seeing them live because they are so good. I've seen them 5 times now and they get better each time.
Badflower seems to amaze me everytime!!! This was me and my two daughters 3rd time watching this talented band and we LUV THEM! Tannahill Taven venue was great. The staff was wonderful.
Badflower was amazing. Loved every minute of it and could have watched them all night.
Always a great time!! Bananaflower never disappoints!!
Tannahill's Tavern provided a great intimate setting that allowed for lots of audience interaction by Josh Katz. Acoustics were great without being too loud or distorted. Some seats would have been much appreciated in general admission standing-only area. Liked the free water/cups available at bar area. Overall Badflower put on a fantastic show. I've seen them twice in the last 60 days - Rocklahoma and FTW, TX.
Seen Badflower three times now, and they just keep getting better. Sound pronominal live, and their stage presence keeps the energy up the entire show
Badflower was amazing! I’m so glad we made the trip from Oklahoma to Fort Worth to come see them!
Badflower played all their good songs and interacted with the audience well.
