Inside the performance

Sound, stage & company

Documented collaborators

The Bad Kind is a blues and soul-influenced rock outfit built around harmonica virtuoso Jason Ricci and powerful vocals from Kaitlin Dibble. Described as blues-rock with vintage and modern influences, the band blends diatonic and chromatic harmonica with raw guitar, bass, and drums to create a sound that moves between classic Chicago blues and contemporary rock. Led by Ricci’s expressive harmonica and Dibble’s dynamic vocal presence, The Bad Kind continues to push boundaries while honoring the tradition of blues storytelling.
