Picks For Canadian Music Week 2015

The Do Good Badlies perform a high energy style of rock that is sure to get anyone moving. They combine the sounds of garage rock with the melodies and folk sounds of indie to create a unique and beautiful sound. The band is based in Toronto and has toured around Canada.

OK, earlier this year, the Do Good Badlies produced one of the best recovery sets I have ever seen, through a series of great songs, clever material selection and having fun, of which Daniel Greer was a major factor.

Primer Día del Queen Street Festival (Toronto)

After Odd Years and the venue becoming emptier by the minute, I was already feeling bad for The Do Good Badlies. Well I was wrong. Very wrong. This is my second most startling band of the night!!!!.

Just make sure there is enough AC to keep the temperature down, because these guys deliver high voltage!!!!
