about

Solo artists Ol' Big Bear aka Dan Trilk of Norwalk, Iowa and Lady Rock aka Jenna McGoran of Olympia, Washington are excited to announce the release of their first single Bad Love.

Trilk and McGoran have been collaborating since 2020 and have released four singles under the moniker Earth Shakers. This track, however, was a departure from their previous sound. With a 90's retro rock feel, big guitars and an equal blend of both vocalists, Bad Love was screaming to be an Ol' Big Bear and Lady Rock track.

Bad Love perfectly captures the essence of an unhealthy relationship. When you know it's not good for you but you just can't leave. They also manage to skillfully leave things vague enough so that just about anyone can relate to it. This track brings back familiar flavors of popular 90's bands like Garbage and Veruca Salt while still sounding modern and vital.

Bad Love was recorded by Trilk at The Vortex, his home studio in Norwalk, IA. McGoran recorded her vocals in her home studio in Olympia, WA. It was produced, mixed and mastered by Trilk.

lyrics

[LYRICS]

Fear has made a fool out of me
I'm so alone when I'm with you
Don't know who you want me to be
You color me with every shade of blue

But I like it…

Bad Love
Is better than no love
Tough luck is lucky enough
You get it if you get it, then you know you've got it good
Bad Love
Is better than no love
Bad Love
I'll take your Bad Love

I'm a slave to your heat
And it burns when you tease
If you're the best I've ever had
Why do you have me on my knees

Ooh But I like it

Bad Love
Is better than no love
Tough luck is lucky enough
You get it if you get it, then you know you've got it good
Bad Love
Is better than no love
Bad Love
I'll take your Bad Love

Oh woah oh woah
Oh woah oh woah
Oh woah oh woah, woah, woah
Oh woah oh woah, woah, woah

Hey, Hey, Hey!

Bad Love
Is better than no love
Tough luck is lucky enough
Bad Love
Is better than no love
I'll take your Bad Love
Bad Love
Is better than no love
I'll take your Bad Love
I'll take your Bad Love.
