Seattle has a storied musical history.  From the arena rock bombast of the Wilson sisters and Heart to the birthplace of grunge and leading alternative label Sub Pop Records.  The city is also the birthplace of snot nosed punk rockers BABY AND THE NOBODIES, who have just released “Bombs Away,” the first single from their forthcoming Ready or Not album, due in early 2025 through F-Bomb Records.  

“Bombs Away” can be downloaded from iTunes and streamed on Spotify.

BABY AND THE NOBODIES have delivered the perfect album to get you off your ass and up to the bar to kick off the New Year correctly. Finding the mental midway point between and and  tipsy then sloshed and ready to thrown down on a moment’s notice, Ready or Not is eight solid tracks of pure melodic mayhem. 

Entering Seattle’s legendary London Bridge Studio  –  home to records by the likes of Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Mother Love Bone and Queensryche, just to name a few – and helmed by Jonathan Plum (Alice in Chains, Ann Wilson, Candlebox and more), the quintet, although endearingly rough around the edges, aimed for sonic perfection … and achieved it. Collectively, the band says, “Jonathan is great to work with, he puts up with Rev and Rebecca’s creative differences and brings both of their ideas to the table. He’s great at listening and understanding where an artist is coming from while still giving his creative input. “, “Jonathan has a way of taking the music, polishing it, skuffing it up and polishing it again, He Gets It.”

About the song, guitarist Rev James says, “”Bombs Away” is about a failing relationship that neither is willing to walk away from, both parties are putting everything they have into it and it still just doesn’t work.  This was actually one of the easiest songs on the album to record, it just came out naturally.  I think Dana got the drums in one or two takes, the bass and basic guitar were laid down at the same time, I think we even kept some of the scratch vocal track from the live recordings. Everyone knew the parts and it flowed easily onto tape.”
