Bad Habit was formed by Glenn (guitars & keys), Dave (bass & vocals) and Chris (drums & vocals) in 2009. Glenn and Dave had previously been in the band Lazy Daze.

Bad Habit began to put together 2 sets of “classic rock” songs but not the songs that every other band plays. It quickly became apparent that the 3 piece line up was going to be too limiting so the search for another guitarist began. Numerous guitarists were auditioned but none came up to scratch until David came along.

At this point Chris decided he wanted to play more blues based rock and left. With good drummers as rare as rocking horse droppings this was a problem but a speculative phone call to the quiet one Phil paid off.

Playing bass and singing was a very difficult job so Dave decided to concentrate on vocals and Meg was recruited to 4/5 string duties. Phil and Meg had previously played together in Flick of the Wrist and Vinyl Years so the 5 piece Bad Habit line up was quickly ready to gig. However, concentrating on lead vocals wasn’t really what Dave wanted to do so he left and the search for a new singer began.
Numerous singers were auditioned and some showed initial promise but it wasn’t until Andy came along that everything finally came together and following a slight name change ‘Kick the Habit’ was born. Their first gig on Halloween 2010 introduced Kick the Habit to the Yorkshire pub and club rock scene.
