Our Story

On a cold February evening in 2001, five young(er) guys were given the opportunity to play music in the living room of a close friend.  Who could have guessed that a humble dinner party would launch the group on a memory making journey of a lifetime!   Today, the line up has grown, and we have experienced the joys of countless backyard parties, weddings, birthdays, and graduations - providing a familiar soundtrack for the road trip to middle age.  Through it all, the Bad Daddies have been blessed to be invited to some of the best parties, weddings, graduations and  celebrations in this part of the world, and today, we are inviting you to our BIGGEST, BADDEST and BEST event in 25 years together!

Saturday, November 28, 2026…The Bad Daddies will be celebrating our 25th Banniversary, with a very special concert event at the Revelry in Camp North End. 

The BDs are influenced by older siblings' LPs and cassette tapes, grew up with MTV and CDs, and now are influenced by our kids playlists and college/post-college experiences!

We have two objectives when playing a gig...get people dancing and have fun.  Period.

We love what we do...we love playing together and we love being a part of the party!
