“Unsentimental, chilling, evocative, and real…” – iHeart Radio News
“Badflower could be one of rock’s next biggest band” – Loudwire “Good, old-fashioned rock n’ roll may have just made a modern comeback.” – NYLON “Badflower write guitar hooks and succulent melodies with the strength of a band 10 times its age.” “This is everything you’d really hope modern rock to be… the band we’ve all been looking for.” – Artist Direct “OK, I’M SICK is an intensely emotional and jarring journey of riff-filled, primal hard rock and a blatantly 21st century rock record covering a range of topics more modern than the average top 40 charts can handle and doing so with an unnerving honesty and vulnerability.” – High Voltage Magazine “[debut album] OK, I’M SICK is definitely a promising start…well-crafted, glossy angst” – Newsday “This fits its right into the 20NineScene comeback we’ve been waiting for (and championing!).” – Paper Tickets for Badflower’s OK, I’M SICK Fall Tour are on-sale today starting at 10am local time. The band announced earlier this week that they will be embarking on their first ever headline tour, where they are performing in 26 different cities, beginning September 28 through November 2. The tour is in support of their critically-acclaimed debut albumOK, I’M SICK. PRESS HERE to purchase tickets. Full routing below.
“We are SO excited for our first official US headline tour supporting our debut album. Every night will be a performance you will never forget. For better or for worse. ��” says lead singer Josh Katz. For each ticket sold, $1 per ticket will be donated to Sea Shepherd Conservation Society (SSCS),an international non-profit, marine wildlife conservation organization. Their mission is to end the destruction of habitat and slaughter of wildlife in the world’s oceans in order to conserve and protect ecosystems and species.
On the band’s decision to work with Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, Katz explains, “I’m a vegan. Animal rights are very important to me, but the bigger picture is that all life has value and my goal is to try to get, not just our fanbase, but the world, to think in those terms. We speak to many issues on the album but this one speaks to my heart and that’s why we decided to incorporate a charitable donation into this tour. Sea Shepherd is the ideal choice for making changes on a global scale.”
OK, I’M Sick landed #1 on Alternative New Artist Album, #3 Alternative Album and on the Billboard Top 200 charts. PRESS HERE to listen to OK, I’M SICK, all of which the band wrote and recorded in Los Angeles. Through their deeply personal music, the album navigates subjects including anxiety, abuse, depression, social media and politics. The band produced a body of work that perfectly encapsulated the issues of their time.
The LA rockers recently scored their second consecutive #1 Hit on Mediabase at Active Rock and first #1 on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock Charts with their single “Heroin,” which followed in the footsteps of their #1 for debut single “Ghost.” Following the chart success, their current single “Promise Me” is now Top 30 on the Alternative charts, while they just released “The Jester” to Active Rock Radio where upon its arrival it was the most added song for the week and has quickly ascended inside the Top 30 on the Active Rock charts. Badflower recently wrapped up support dates for Shinedown on the ATTENTION ATTENTION tour, and toured with Nothing More’s The Truth tour earlier this year.
