Phillip E. Hardy is a professional Business Consultant, writer and musician with a diverse range of abilities and interests.
Hardy began his drumming career in the mid 1970s, occasionally filling in as substitute drummer for Los Angeles punk band The Weasels, as well as jamming at the legendary Masque and recording with musicians including Dean Chamberlain, The Skulls and Marvin Etzioni of Lone Justice fame.
During the 1980s he twice worked with Asylum Kids bassist and vocalist Dino Archon in bands named DV8 and Symbol Positive playing at Club Lingerie, Madame Wong's, and The Troubadour and on the Radio stage at the 1984 LA Street Scene. During the early 1990s, he fronted his own band Badge of Honor playing numerous live shows and had original songs featured on KLOS Radio Best of Local Licks show.
In a May 9, 1994 Music Connection magazine review, Hardy’s vocal style was compared to Harry Chapin and in a July 4, 1994 article said his drumming was described as “As precise as the tick-tock of Big Ben and rocks like a run away renegade.
In 2004, his album Old Dog, New Tricks was released and received positive reviews from publications including Fufkin magazine, Ripping Tracks and IOM magazine.
Hardy has recently played drums for several blues and rock artists including Joe Houston and Guitar Shorty and opened as opening act for classic rock band Canned Heat. On September 3, 2006 Hardy joined The Lively Ones (Pulp Fiction Film Soundtrack) playing drums and singing lead vocals for a concert at the Orange International Street Fair. He now plays live with them on a regular basis.
He is the author Kingdom of the Hollow, the Story of the Hatfields and McCoys. In a December 2006 review, Roundup magazine described the book as "an action-filled, fictionalized account of the feud, with a strong sense of place, rich descriptive narrative full of regional detail, and crisply drawn characters." More recently he has edited a book of his father Robert's poems and included some of his own called Confessions of a Bipolar Poet and it is availabe for purchase at amazon.com and lulu.com.
Hardy was awarded a Bachelor of Science in Business Management in 2001 and a Master of Management from the University of Redlands in 2003. He is a Stanford University Certified Project Manager ************************************************************************************
