Bad Medicine

Bad Medicine Bio:

Hot “spots,” flashing colors, driving “riffs,” smooth “keys,” vocals booming out six decades of melodies… chances are you’re telling someone about the last time you saw “the crew,”…the BAD MEDICINE crew. And the music… well, the intent of their song selection is to keep you dancing all night. The musical versatility of this band allows you to be transported through a virtual timeline of music. You can depart from Graceland with Elvis, stop for awhile with Janis and Steppenwolf, enjoy some “Doobies,” witness the soaring grace of The Eagles, feel the pulse of the “heartland” with Petty and Mellencamp, party with Buffett, rock it up with Aerosmith, REO, and Creed, walk 3 Doors Down into the next century to Matchbox Twenty and The Foo Fighters. Indeed, it is an all-encompassing journey, but the musical smorgasbord will truly fill you up. Oh, sorry for rambling on… that’s BAD MEDICINE.

 

The idea started taking shape in June of 2001, with three of the seven musicians. A lot of growth and practicing was needed before the crew finally “came out of the basement and went public with their intentions” on April 13, 2002. They continue to flourish on their original principal belief of being a very, very, good “cover” band that focuses mostly on “the classics,” and convey to the audience that the fun they’re having on stage goes back to the music…it’s always about playing the music.

 

Musical versatility, staging, and audience appeal are what this bunch from Vincennes, Indiana, (“yeh… that’s our home… and we love it, like it, yes we do”) are all about. Comprised of three guitars, bass, drums, percussion, and vocals, the Bad Medicine crew definitely delivers a full sound, yet has the versatility to adjust to any size venue. There is no event too public or too private for them to handle. As the band says, “we’ll play for pretty much anything that’s legal, and if you can think of something that isn’t'’ ...well, run it by us...we’re easy!" Get on that musical roller-coaster with BAD MEDICINE…they’re the right prescription for a great ride!
