We're Better From a Distance
Rock and roll for the hyperopic
In these days of synthesized drums and muzak, where artistic style is crafted as much by the Boardroom as the musician that play, and "auto-tuned" bands cater to Gen-X and Y, BFaD has chosen to play to those who "made it all happen". As rock-n-roll purveyors to the "farsighted" Baby Boom Generation, we strive to entertain those who lie awake when they should be asleep and asleep when they should be awake... and to anyone who believes Ibuprofen is a daily dietary supplement.
