Bad Columbus was formed in 2008 by next-door-neighbors in Urbana, Illinois. After several years together on the south shore of Lake Superior, the Bad Columbus Diaspora is now spread across the inland seas. They craft unabashed rock n' roll anthems blended with smooth jazz and classic country influences: a cosmic gumbo of the utmost excellence. 

Benzie County resident Patrick Shea is the primary singer/songwriter, Max Dragoo is lead guitar aficionado, Aidan Reilly drives it home on the drums, and choir/band teacher Sean Van Zeeland plays keyboard, fiddle, acoustic guitar or melodica.

Catch their show at the Parkview Taproom on Friday, August 18!
