Brighton-based rock band, Bad Luck Friday has released ‘Rebel With A Cause’, the third single from their eponymous debut album.
“’Rebel With A Cause’ is Bad Luck Friday‘s unambiguous statement about Britain’s current political climate,” said the band’s guitarist Steve Brook. “Channelling Rage Against the Machine, the track’s opening riff serves as a rallying call to the disaffected, the downtrodden and jaded alike: get off your rear and get to the front! It’s big, bold and demands to be heard.”
Bad Luck Friday is not your typical blues rock band. Vocalist Will Wilde also has a reputation in the blues world as a pioneer of the rock harp, but with Bad Luck Friday, he’s taken the music beyond its traditional blues roots.
The band formed during the ashes of the pandemic when live music ground to a halt. Frustrated but still determined and highly creative, Wilde teamed up with guitarist, Steve Brook, and together they journeyed inward and developed their original style before bringing in Alan Taylorand Jack Turnbullto complete the line-up.
Their fusion of bluesy classic rock and aggressive, contemporary hard rock encompasses anthemic choruses, catchy riffs, searing vocals, and Wilde’s blistering harmonica solos.
Bad Luck Friday support American rock guitarist Jared James Nicholsat The Black Heartin London on Wednesday 22nd February, with tickets available here.
