hard rock is a plausible fit for Shaky Knees' alternative-focused booking lane.
Buckcherry are a Los Angeles hard-rock band formed in the mid-1990s, known for a loud, swaggering blend of hard rock, punk attitude, and big melodic hooks. Fronted by Josh Todd, the band broke through with songs such as “Lit Up” and later “Crazy Bitch,” building a long-running reputation around direct songwriting, high-energy performances, and an unapologetically old-school rock-and-roll approach.
