Bad History Month is the intimate, lo‑fi songcraft project led by Sean Sprecher. Emerging from the Boston DIY scene in 2013 (initially releasing as Fat History Month, then rebranding to Bad History Month), the project has carved out a distinctive voice that blends folk roots with indie rock textures. Known for minimalist production, existential and humorous lyrics, and a natural storytelling vibe, Bad History Month has earned attention from Pitchfork, NPR, and WBUR for its emotional depth and candid approach.
