BAMM

A musical force to be reckoned with, Bo Allen Messer Music—BAMM—is less of a house band and more of a band on course to become a household name. From its roots in Madison, Wisconsin in early 2024 to its debut-year tour through Colorado, Nebraska, and Wisconsin, BAMM has made a big impact in just one year on the music scene. With over one hundred shows played, a debut album (Shifting Tides) gaining airplay and attention, and a feature interview on Madison's Max Ink Radio 92.7FM, BAMM is quickly building momentum and turning heads.

Igniting every stage with passion, BAMM’s songs and performances blend rich roots music with touches of Southern rock and funk—brought to life through dynamic musicianship and high-energy improvisation. Their sound invites both deep listening and toe-tapping fun, drawing in fans from diverse musical backgrounds.

Lead guitarist and singer-songwriter Bo Messer grew up on blues and Southern rock and thrives on spontaneous live jams. Tomek Lesniak (violin) was raised playing traditional Polish Highlander folk music with his family. Dylan White (drums) brings a love for experimental soul, funk, and jazz. The three first played together in Cruisin Round (formed in 2020) before Bo founded BAMM—a band designed to stand the test of time. Mark Goodden (keys), a music-degree graduate, is passionate about jazz, music composition, and the art of intricate musical writing. Pete Koconis (bass), who thrives on funk, rock, and high-energy grooves, later joined BAMM after its founding.

BAMM’s Shifting Tides tour, which ran from May 21 to May 26, 2025, was a major step forward—taking the band across state lines, growing its fanbase, and proving its ability to captivate crowds far from home. Bo Allen Messer Music (BAMM) is a dynamic musical ensemble led by singer-songwriter Bo Allen Messer. Whether performing solo with his acoustic guitar or accompanied by a full band, BAMM delivers a captivating blend of Americana, folk, and blues-rock influences that resonate with audiences of all ages.
