Artist description Take one part pure powerpop, add intelligence, sprinkle with attitude, and baste with psychedelica. Bad Haskells marries powerful guitars and rhythms with intelligent lyrics and infectious melodies. The result is "Texas' next great export" according to Texas Music News magazine. Christopher Amos writes, "if Picasso has been a musician, his music would sound like the Bad Haskells."
