Mr. Kickass is a punk rock band run by three kick-ass dudes who have been playing shows together for years. Mike Fradenburgh’s intense bass and vocals, Jake Daire’s thunderous drums, and Jed Olsen’s screaming guitar have rocked Homegrown for a whopping 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.”
