Known for their energetic sets, UK’s Bad Sounds did not disappoint Wednesday night at their first ever Chicago show at Metro! The band was started by brothers Callum and Ewan Merrett whose diverse taste in music helped create the band’s unique sound. Sounding like a mix of pop, hip hop, rock, and funk, the band offers a sound that cannot be found elsewhere. Their full sound and catchy beats quickly won over the concert-goers and they had had pretty much everyone moving along to the music within the first three songs. The band members expressed their gratitude not only to Broods, but also to the fans for showing up early to see them open up the show. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that the band left Chicago with hundreds of new fans. Can’t wait to see what’s next for this band!
