BAD BONES - Erik Grönwall (Official Music Video)
⸻
After years of fronting some of rock’s most iconic acts, Erik Grönwall returns with his first fully original solo album, Bad Bones, out May 22nd. The title track and first single “Bad Bones” marks the beginning of a bold new chapter.
Known worldwide for his powerhouse vocals and commanding stage presence, Erik has previously fronted Skid Row and H.E.A.T, and toured across Europe and Japan providing lead vocals for guitar legend Michael Schenker. With Bad Bones, he now turns the focus inward.
Built entirely on original material, the album represents a return to songwriting at its core - honest, powerful, and deeply personal.
“I’ve had the honor of fronting some great bands, but now it’s time to tell my own story. ‘Bad Bones’ is about owning who you are and not apologizing for it. I’ve always walked my own path, no matter what people thought. I’ve never followed the norm - and I’m not about to start now.”
“Bad Bones” is available on all major digital platforms February 27th, 2026.

Born out of fire, not to behave
One thing I know is to dig my own grave
Been breaking rules since I could crawl
(Bad Bones Baby)
But I’m standing, not gonna fold
Built out of trash, or so I’m told
I never listen, I’m bound to fall
(Bad Bones Baby)
Can’t blame it on my bloodline
Don’t worry ’cause I feel fine
I’ve been like this from the get-go
It’s all I ever know
So get in line if you come to save me
It doesn’t matter what you say
Mom and dad made some Bad Bones Baby
(Bad Bones Baby)
So get in line if you come to save me
It doesn’t matter what you say
Mom and dad made some Bad Bones Baby
(Bad Bones Baby)
I can’t shake it, won’t play along
And it’s alright if I get it all wrong
If that’s a problem, I know it well
But I’m standing, not gonna fold
Built out of trash, or so I’m told
I never listen, I’m bound to fall
(Bad Bones Baby)
Can’t blame it on my bloodline
Don’t worry ’cause I feel fine
I’ve been like this from the get-go
It’s all I ever know
