Imagine what would happen if Jimi Hendrix, Robert Johnson & Janis Joplin met at The Crossroads and decided to form a band. That band would sound like Willie J & The Bad Books.
This band lights up every stage and takes no prisoners.
They bring a fresh approach to blues rock laced with psychedelic heavy grooves and jaw dropping riffage. Every show is a soul sacrifice from the band that demands you to boogie.
Comprised of Willie J Maxwell – Lead Vocals & Guitar, Rick Steward – Guitar, Lap Steel & Backing Vocals, Matt Forge – Bass, Fru Parsons – Drums & Eileen Hodgkins – Vocals & Organ.
Between the five members that make up The Bad Books there is decades of experience in the art of stage craft.

A podiatrist and or someone with a foot fetish – just to take the weight off when I’m done stompin’.

A hole in the roof, in the shape of a heart.

A long walk to the shop to get a sausage roll, cause we all know, that it’s a long way to the top if you wanna rock n roll.
