The Big Hurt

With its members hailing from Baltimore, Annapolis, Kent Island and Waldorf, Maryland, The Big Hurt band hit the music scene with an eclectic mix of Rock, Reggae, Breakbeat, Drum & Bass, Funk, Acid Jazz, Ska, Punk, Hip Hop, go-go, Jungle, Trip Hop and Afro Beat. The bands first notable appearance was in February of 2005 when they were asked to open for Long Beach Shortbus (of Sublime fame) at Towson's Recher Theatre. Two months later, they were picked out of 3000 local and regional acts to compete in the HFStival "Big Break" contest.
