The Ex-Bombers Release “He’s a Bad, Bad Man”

These grandchildren of “Nuggets” are the only band to appear both on PBS television and as the theme song to the number one professional wrestling podcast in the world (the “Jim Cornette Experience”). They love their sprawling record collection and vow to continue making music for people who used to love music and who want to love music again.

• Reached #48 on the Radio Indie Alliance charts
• Played on 400+ radio stations in 33 countries
• Featured as pro wrestler Jeremiah Plunkett’s ring entrance music at Billy Corgan’s National Wrestling Alliance.
• The Ex-Bombers played Jeremiah Plunkett to the ring live at the inaugural Pro Wrestling Symphony event in Nashville, TN and will be featured in an upcoming wrestling storyline.

“Ex-Bombers is a duo, on 8-string bass Nancy Walus and on drums Kitty, or Keri Cousins. Boy are they fantastic. It’s a wonderful sleazy, skanky, blues-y, psychedelic, kind of garage rock with a lot of melody, and a lot of attitude. They like to do it the way it was recorded in ‘66 at the height of the Nuggets era…. It’s a great song.” – Jim DeRogatis (“Sound Opinions” – Nationally syndicated show on 150 U.S. stations with two legendary music critics).

“He’s a Bad, Bad Man the #1 hot track of Summer 2025!

– Sound Opinions

“It’s a jazz set up, but there’s no jazz there, just down

and dirty rock n roll!”- Radio Warfare with Tim Livingston

“A helluva track with a great groove.”

Pariah Burke (“The Hard, Heavy & Hair Show”

airing on 43 radio stations worldwide).

“He’s A Bad Bad Man sounds like Suzi Quatro, but with some added Kick Down The Door Swagger!”

-Sethy LoRusso (“Elastic Glam” radio show where it was also the Neo Glam song of the week)

“The missing link between Suzi Quatro and the Stooges”

– Cobwebs and Strange radio show

This song is dirty, sleazy, and oh so catchy; everything that a great rock song should be. So it made perfect sense when professional wrestler Jeremiah Plunkett (the National Wrestling Alliance Mid America champion) started using it as his ring entrance music. When it came time to make a music video, The Ex-Bombers reached out to Plunkett, who had been using the song at all of his matches for Billy Corgan’s National Wrestling Alliance. The result is a wild and compelling New Hollywood style story shot in the dirty streets of Murfreesboro, TN about the actions of one bad, bad man.

SONG LYRICS –

He’s a Bad, Bad Man!

The sun goes down cuz he comes out at night,

his right hand’s how they make dynamite.

He heads north and the birds fly south,

better not catch his name in your mouth.

Town to town he lives the hard life,

combs his hair with a switchblade knife.

His sugar hold is never sweet,

he’s gonna break you down from your head to your feet.

And if he shoots, he doesn’t miss,

especially not in a town like this!

Look out now cuz he’s coming our way,

with bad intent that makes everyone say,

“He’s a bad, bad man!

He’s a bad, bad man.”

The sun goes down cuz he comes out at night,

his right hand’s how they make dynamite.

His sugar hold is never sweet,

he’s gonna break you down from your head to your feet.

And if he shoots, he doesn’t miss,

especially not on a night like this!

Look out now cuz he’s coming our way.

He’s got bad intent that makes everyone say

“oh, he’s a bad, bad man!”

He’s a bad, bad man.

He’s a bad, bad man! What a bad, bad man!

The Ex-Bombers
