About
Bad Uncle is a four-piece, accordion driven, in-your-face rock n roll band that combines growling Waits-esque vocals, genre-bending guitar wizardry and driving upright slap bass and trash can drums.
With a nod to 1950’s horror camp, Bad Uncle combines a myriad of genres from gypsy-folk to rock to disco while telling stories of the absurd, the macabre and sometimes even with some self reflection.
