Blood-pumping and highly addictive, Bad Luck Blackouts hit the skate-punk scene hard after forming in Eugene, Oregon late 2010. This new-old-school punk band’s fast and dynamic tunes are well complimented by the band’s ability to bring in crowds and have them singing along – long after the show ends. Bad Luck Blackouts’ live shows prove to be as energetic and even more super-charged as the band’s 2022 EP release, 9 Lives, including dynamic and hard-hitting songs as Skin You're In and Die Die Die.

This power trio is lead by their bassist and vocalist, Kyra Van Winkle who’s strong melodic and raunchy singing stays true to the stylings of Bad Religion, The Distillers, and Hole. West coast native, Cody Holman executes precise and dynamic rhythms on drums, which suits any punk or heavy rocker. Aaron Carlson’s clean surf-rock guitar style completes Bad Luck Blackouts with the sounds and charms loyal to his Chicago roots. Van Winkle and Carlson both met while playing the local punk circuit when they decided to form the band and began writing songs in 2010. Original drummer, and Fargo native, Johnny Kraft and his precise and creative drum rhythms was an instant fit after meeting the two in January 2011. These three confidently played interactive and lively shows, over the next 6 years, with touring and local acts – both at home and on the road.
