SON OF A BAD MAN is a "Southern Pop" band from Jacksonville, FL. They formed in 2008 and have been spreading their well written songs and intense live shows across the southeast for the last 3 years. They spent a short time on Universal Republic Records and recorded an EP with John Fields (Switchfoot, Andrew WK, Soul Asylum) in 2009. After amicably parting ways with the label in 2010, with the EP never seeing a physical release, the band had the desire to go and record an album on their own. The only problem was, they had no money; but with the help of the new website, Kickstarter, fans of the band donated money to their cause. All in all, they ended up raising over four thousand dollars and immediately went into the studio to create an album for their fans. With a release date expected in the first quarter of 2012, SON OF A BAD MAN promises an album that tries to capture their live sound more than any previous CD.
