The Bad Boys of Country Rock
From the heart of the Midwest comes BUCKNeck-Ed, a high energy powerhouse delivering the best of Outlaw Country and Southern Rock to stages across Wisconsin. Known by fans as “The Bad Boys of Country Rock”, this band brings a raw, authentic sound that blends rebellious, whiskey-soaked storytelling with hard-driving, electrified anthems.
Formed in the early 2010's, BUCKNeck-Ed was established with a mission to bring true, gritty and untamed country music back to the live stage. Whether they are covering outlaw legends or playing their own brand of backroad rockers, the band's focus is on high-octane performance and crowd-fueled energy.
Lead by veteran drummer Dakota Fred - who brought this passion for Southern Fried Rock from the Badlands to the Midwest - the band quickly solidified their place as a go-to act for fans seeking a wilder side of country.
Featuring fan-favorite originals like “Noise” and “Backroads”, BUCKNeck-Ed has built a reputation for turning every venue into a rocking, rowdy party. With a dedicated following and non-stop schedule of gigs, they continue to push the boundaries of modern country, providing an unapologetic, loud, and unforgettable experience for every audience.
