35-year-old Shaun White is a great Snowboarder and skateboarder. He has won gold three times in Olympics for halfpipe snowboarding. But, apart from all these achievements, Shaun also had one more achievement every teenager wants. His music band, Shaun’s band, started in 2013, the golden era for his band ‘Bad Things.’

Shaun was the guitarist for the band. The band features former singer Davis LeDuke, Augustana, Anthony Sanudo, and former drummer and vocalist Lena Zawaideh. Bad Things have also signed a deal for records with Warner Bros. Records.

In 2014, Shaun White posted a picture of his band Bad Things standing beside a car accident. Shaun posted this picture on his tweeter handle and captioned it, “Really Lena…… @BadThings #SXSW #itsfuntodobadthings.” The car company Chevrolet also retweeted and asked them about the lift.

The band joked and entertained everyone with this fake accident post. The whole group of Bad Things used to vibe together. They played their first song in New York City on July 11, 2013. They were so famous that Lallapolooza replaced them with Death Grips on the Saturday slot in August 2013.

Their first digital single, ‘Anybody,’ was released in August 2013. Then they released the whole album, which included twelve tracks with two iTunes exclusive bonus tracks. On 2015 April 29, David LeDuke made an announcement that saddened the Band Things fans.
