The Story

From cornfields to carnivals

Indiana Bradley is a Los Angeles crooner whose melodic post-punk collides with rich streaks of Americana. A globetrotting journalist with roots deep in Midwestern soil, he carried those roots through dozens of countries — from Argentina to Indonesia — and spun the whole restless journey into song.

His droning baritone growl rides driving guitars and rhythmic keys at a Fugazi-meets-The-Damned pace, telling tales of pirates, Hollywood, heaven, hell, and redemption. Beyond his debut LP Ghost Star and two live albums cut at The Satellite and Harvard & Stone, he's released the Pale City EP — featuring AFI's Hunter Burgan on guitar and bass — and Canticles of Los Angeles, produced by Seth Olansky.

"Never give up. If you don't believe that, don't even start."— Indiana Bradley
