Bag Ratty Bro are back with their 2nd single, ‘Crushing Eggshells!’
Pan-Reality Power Pop Combo Bag Ratty Bro release new single ‘Crushing Eggshells’ on March 25th, 2021. The single is the second release from the upcoming debut EP ‘Chapter and Multiverse’ that is available from May 13th, 2021.
‘Crushing Eggshells’ continues to blaze the Bag Ratty’s high energy, up tempo trail towards the power-pop stars. The frenetic movement of the heavy guitar lead and bass will set even the most leaden foot tapping, while the explosive chorus will keep those rock-heads nodding.
This time the Bag Ratty’s are tackling the tentative world of online social justice, cancel culture and the perils of opinions, or as guitarist Kev puts it:
“You can’t say anything nowadays. Well you can, but you shouldn’t? But, you’ve got to be free to speak, but not unless you’re spoken to? I don’t know. Probably best just keep out of it.”
About Bag Ratty Bro
Bag Ratty Bro met aboard the liberated Nargonian Cruiser ‘Monstromo’ during an unlicensed zero-gravity harmonic duel.
Several time tours and dimension hops later, they’ve now decided to try and crack the home of Pop-Punk: Earth in the 20th Century. But they missed, so are going to try the 21st Century instead.

Hello. Episode 24 of my Beatles podcast is available now!
Also, I have a new single with my band ‘Bag Ratty Bro’ that you can listen to here: ‘I Want A Robot Hoover’

You may have noticed already something slightly different about the guys… apart from the mutant head, green skin and robotic drummer, these guys are ever so slightly reality-challenged.
Then again, aren’t we all? Originally, I intended this project to have an illustrated internet presence, possibly backed up by a live band purporting to be playing Bag Ratty Bro ‘covers’. Then the whole pesky Pandemic thing came along.
I’m not one to sit on a project, I’m too itchy for that and like to be moving onto the next thing, so the fact that this has still taken around 15 months to get this out goes to show the challenges of creative working in lockdown.
So, the live band is on hold, for now, and what we have here is DIY+ music, the majority of the parts recorded by me at home, with the real drums being added in post production by super talented producer Tom Bishop in his studio, who also mixed and mastered the whole thing.
The whole thing, by the way, is a 6 song EP ‘Chapter and Mutiverse’ that is available to preorder now.
But to get us there, 4 of the songs will be released as singles along with original artwork for each, illustrated by the excellent Rob Amos based on his character designs and our joint ideas for scenes. No matter what happens with the music, I think he has done an amazing job bringing these guys to life, especially when you see what my reference sketches look like…
Yeah, I’ll stick to the music…
It’s hard to believe that Rob Amos can interpret the above and turn it into this:
OFFICIAL ARTWORK!
The singles will be available to stream through the usual places, and the first, ‘I Want A Robot Hoover’ is out now!
My intention is to keep my name out of it as much as possible, and try and reach beyond my social circle, but I’m already finding that hard, both emotionally and literally, in a ‘gatekeeper’ environment that wants to ignore or judge you, unless the price is right. But I’m focussing on the fact that none of this matters, really. But still, it would be nice to find a little audience for this project to see if it can take on a life of it’s own. If you follow any of the Bag Ratty Bro social channels (find them through the links on this page), they will deny all knowledge of me.
If you are reading this, and are so inclined, please take a listen, save the songs to your playlists or whatever you kids do nowadays, order the EP, share the links on your socials, help me get the Bag Ratties out there with their brand of uptempo catchy power pop that just wants to be heard and make you happy!
Also, I have a new project launching this week, a single by band ‘Bag Ratty Bro’ that you can preview and preorder here: ‘I Want A Robot Hoover’
This is the first of 3 singles that are on the EP ‘Chapter and Multiverse’ which is available for pre-order now. It would be great if you’d consider taking a listen and ordering.
