BIOGRAPHY
Bai Bang, a driving force in the Swedish rock scene of the 2000s, hails from Helsingborg. The glam rock band’s sound spans from raw, classic sleaze rock to melodic hard rock. Founder Diddi Kastenholt writes the music and believes the band’s best songwriting is showcased on their last four albums: Rock of Life, All Around the World, Livin' My Dream, and Are You Ready. Best of Four was released on May 31, 2019, via Lion’s Pride Music.
In their early years, Bai Bang were heavily influenced by bands like T. Rex, Sweet, and Kiss. Their first major tour was with Scottish rockers Nazareth, and since then, they’ve shared the stage with the likes of Alice Cooper, Pretty Maids, Dio, Ratt, Union, LA Guns, and many others.
Following their tour with Nazareth, Bai Bang has played across Europe, Canada, Japan, and the USA.
The band has rocked major festivals including Wacken Open Air, Sweden Rock Festival, Rocklahoma, Hard Rock Hell Sleaze, Hard Rock Hell AOR, Hard Rock Hell, and HEAT Festival.
In December 2023, the band welcomed Magnus Rosén (ex-HammerFall) as their new bassist! He made his live debut with Bai Bang in Greece on January 12, 2024. Welcome aboard!
Diddi Kastenholt is currently writing the next album. Bai Bang promises to bring back the big songs and big shows of rock 'n' roll!
