New Low End on the Beat: Welcoming Alex Read to The Badly Bent!

We're excited to announce a new addition to The Badly Bent family! Please give a warm welcome to our new bass player, Alex Read.

Alex isn't just any bassist; he brings a wealth of talent and experience to the band. Originally from Durango, Colorado, Alex is a seasoned musician who plays in several bands, bringing a dynamic and versatile approach to the low end. You can find Alex working his magic as a luthier at Jimmy's Music, keeping the instruments of our fair city sounding their best.

We can't wait for you to hear Alex live! We've got a busy summer of gigs lined up, and Alex will be there for every note. To see our upcoming shows and catch Alex in action, head over to our website at www.thebadlybent.com.

We have been woodshedding, learning some new tunes and reviving some of the old ones. We’re excited about performing in Bayfield at the Performing Arts Center as part of the Durango Meltdown’s Bluegrass in the Schools program and, of course, it’s Durango Bluegrass Meltdown Season! See you there
