Bad Hagrid

Who’s that gargantuan figure pounding on your front door in the dead of night? His face is obscured by a long, shaggy mane of unkempt hair. The musk of cheap piss radiates from his very being. One thing is for sure: he ain’t here to deliver you a letter.

Authors of magic Pōneke sound, self acclaimed spooky boys Bad Hagrid bring the fire to the stage. The psychedelic synthetic rock quartet dive into broken clichés and dissolved normalities to create audible bliss. Story telling of the finest, modern order. This is how they greet the world; synthscapes, sonic shapes and emotional escapes.

Being birthed out of the Wellington Massey music revival, Bad Hagrid has been making a fuss in the music scene to gain attention. Brought alive in 2018, Bad Hagrid tells stories of unique but relatable characters and is putting them forward to their national audience.

Bad Hagrids' debut album, Bad Hagrid and The Planet of The Androgynites, was released during lockdown on the 8th of May 2020 as the first audible step into the New Zealand Music Industry. Since the release Bad Hagrid has been pushing and shoving into the industry leaving a wake of beard oil, stray hair, and sporadic drops of poly-juice.

Bad Hagrid chased down the album with the 2021 energetic follow up Kowabunga D00d. A psychoactive nod to the conspiracies of 2021.
