BADMNRCH (pronounced Bad Monarch) is a meeting of the minds, presented by Realnamejames and Nicklaus Gray. Formed during the summer of 2020, amidst a backdrop of civil unrest and a pandemic ravaging the world. The duo’s mission statement was simple: Make amazing music, during a terrible time. For the remainder of 2020 their focus and drive was relentless as they created an EP that served as much of an introduction to their creative vision, as an escape from the world around. They aptly fell on a simple yet powerful statement for their project title. Everything Is Fine was released on Thanksgiving Day to a small but dedicated group of supporters, who received the music with much acclaim. 2021 brings a new year, a collection of new opportunities, and a much anticipated sophomore release.
