Baddies (band)

Baddies were a British high energy indie rock band formed in late 2007 and played through 2012. ''Baddies with Attitude BBC Introducing included them on their BBC Introducing stage at One Big Weekend as tipped by BBC Essex Introducing.

The album was supported by touring of the UK and Europe, including 32 European festivals in the summer of 2009. The band then embarked on tours of Australia and Japan in 2010.

Baddies launched a campaign through PledgeMusic in May 2011 in order to raise funds for recording their second studio album. The album was recorded in the summer of 2011, again at Rockfield Studios.
