About

A multi-genre band formed in 2013 by founding members Ginger Grace and Brock Hard; Backhand Sally's brand of singer-songwriter infused rock-pop-country-dance-blues-and more is what makes up the sound of Backhand Sally.

The core of the group is a duo comprised of Louisiana native Ginger Grace and Texas native Brock Hard. Each one brings their own unique style and musical influence to the group, and their dynamic is a sound that is eclectic, edgy and inspired. With over 20 years of performance, touring, writing and recording experience between them, it was a natural fit to blend their two unique sounds and abilities together.

Ginger has been singing and performing since she was 8 years old. A songwriter as well, she released her first EP in 2011 and toured with show band Vince Vance and The Valients as Venus Valienette. She also played with several bands in the DFW area before co-founding BS, and writes the music blog Ginger Grace Music!

Brock has been playing guitar and rocking audiences for over 15 years. With a wide range of musical influences and styles, he has something up his sleeve for every listener. He has performed with the acclaimed R&B band Groove University and toured throughout the U.S. with several other bands before co-founding BS.

Backhand Sally is currently finishing their first album due this early 2019. Their first single "Text You When I Drink" was Hellcast Radio's song of the year, 2017, they were honored to also be Hellcast Radio's fan-favorite band of the year, 2017. You can find BS playing all throughout the Dallas metro area and surrounding states, as well as private functions and their Live With BS, shows on Facebook, YouTube and Instagram.

Additional booking notes
