BAD BUNCH RADIO
w/ Black Bananas
We can’t tell anymore if Bad Bunch Radio is a show or a transmission from outside time. Jennifer Herrema and Kurt Midness curate sounds that feel like echoes from a world that almost existed—one of art, possibility, and forgotten futures. Listening feels like being handed a key—but to what?
Maybe it’s a Rosetta Stone for decoding this fractured now. Or a warning wrapped in rhythm—proof the past isn’t behind us and the future isn’t ahead. Or maybe a map in static, shaped by Herrema’s radical Bitches Brew ethos and fearless self-definition, bending gender and genre into instinct.
Midness amplifies the signal—pulling from the edges where sound, style, and subversion collide. This isn’t just radio. It’s a living artifact. Once you tune in, silence won’t sound the same.
