CAN’T GET ENOUGH: A TRIBUTE TO BAD COMPANY

First Ever Tribute Album to Bad Company out October 24, 2025

September 17, 2025 – One of today’s most authentic and fast-rising voices in Americana and country music, Charley Crockett has released his rendition of the classic, “Bad Company”(written by Paul Rodgers and Simon Kirke) from the forthcoming tribute album, Can’t Get Enough: A Tribute to Bad Company, to be released October 24, 2025 on Primary Wave Music.

Outlaw country troubadour Charley Crockett brings grit, soul, and swagger to his cover of “Bad Company”. Known for his genre-blending style that fuses vintage country, blues, and Americana, Crockett delivers a haunting and heartfelt interpretation that feels both timeless and unmistakably his own. With a voice steeped in storytelling and defiance, Charley’s version taps into the song’s renegade spirit, reimagining it through the lens of the American West and his own life experiences: playing his pawn-shop guitar on the streets of New Orleans, hitchhiking, and riding freight trains north until he found himself busking on the streets of New York in 2009.

“What a song. Never imagined I’d be asked to cut a Bad Company tune, especially this one,” says Crockett. “I grew up cranking the volume anytime it was on a classic rock station in Texas. Still do. It’s an untouchable and timeless song. I only hope I can do it some justice.”

“Bad Company” was produced by Grammy-Award winning Shooter Jennings (Brandi Carlile, Tanya Tucker) and Crockett at Sunset Sound Studios Los Angeles. Legendary bassist, Darryl Jones – known for powering The Rolling Stones, Miles Davis, and Sting – brings his iconic groove to the track.
