The Future of Rock Has Arrived 

In an era desperate for a rock ‘n’ roll revival, Bad Machine crashes onto the scene  like a thunderstorm of raw power, soul, and unrelenting energy. This band isn’t just  playing music—they’re reigniting the raw, soulful electricity that once defined the  golden age of rock. 

At the heart of that fire is Joao Brandi—a Brazilian-born guitarist whose explosive  playing powers the band's signature sound. After cutting his teeth in the Brazilian  scene, he moved to Los Angeles, performing on iconic stages like The Whisky, The  Roxy, and Ozzfest. As Page is to Zeppelin, Perry is to Aerosmith, or Clapton is  to Cream, Joao is to Bad Machine. 

Beside him stands Karma, a vocal powerhouse who embodies the spirit of rock’s  greatest frontwomen and frontmen alike. With a voice that can cut like a knife or  soar like a battle cry, she delivers every lyric with raw, unfiltered passion, capturing  the essence of Zeppelin’s mystique, the grit of the Allman Brothers, and the  rebellious swagger of the Black Crowes. 

If one solo virtuoso wasn’t enough, Bad Machine unleashes a second: Sindy Shen. A concert piano prodigy by day and a rock ‘n’ roll firestarter by night, she  commands Hammond, Wurlitzer, Rhodes, and grand piano with effortless mastery.  With Sindy trading solos and textures alongside Joao, Bad Machine delivers a  dynamic one-two punch of virtuosic firepower. 

Backed by a powerhouse rhythm section including Monterey legend Pete Hoegemier on bass. Bad Machine are the undeniable heirs to rock’s long-abandoned  throne.  Bad Machine crafts original tracks that feel instantly iconic—built on  unforgettable riffs, driving grooves, and lyrics that cut straight to the heart. Each tune pulses with purpose and precision, holding its own next to the most  timeless anthems of classic rock. 

This isn’t a throwback. This isn’t nostalgia. This is the sound of rock taking its  throne back—loud, fearless, and built to shake the foundation.
