Mr. Kickass is a punk rock band run by three kickass dudes: Mike Fradenburgh, Jed Olsen and Jake Daire. Fradenburgh’s intense bass and vocals, Daire’s thunderous drums and Olsen’s screaming guitar have rocked Homegrown for two decades. Olsen and Fradenburgh met at Homegrown in 2002, started the band shortly after, and played the festival for the first time in 2006. The trio’s music is fast, loud, fun and, as Fradenburgh notes, there’s “a lot of beer spilled along the way.”
