Bad-U2 LIVE Solo Acoustic Cover Version by Johnny Chase (experimenting w/Loop Station)

Johnny Chase Performs U2’s song “Bad” Live using a minimalist solo acoustic + loop-station setup to build layers and dynamics in real time. This version of “Bad” by U2 explores the song’s emotional slow-burn in a raw, stripped-down way—letting the loops rise and fall like waves, the same way U2 plays with atmosphere, space, and tension in the original.

If you dig live acoustic reinterpretations, loop-building, or vocals with a Rob Thomas / Eddie Vedder–style grit, you’ll feel right at home here.

About This Cover

U2’s “Bad” is one of those songs that hits in layers—emotionally and musically. This performance leans into that feeling with a looped rhythmic foundation, ambient guitar swells, and a solo-acoustic vocal delivery that keeps the heart of the track front and center.
Fans of U2, The Killers, Coldplay, Pearl Jam, Rob Thomas, and atmospheric alt-rock will recognize the energy immediately.
