In 2013, Badger initiated a PledgeMusic campaign.[4] This helped him release his first solo record, Time Will Tell. By offering exclusive content to listeners who pledged and providing updates related to the project to his following, the campaign reached its goal and the record entitled Time Will Tell was released in late 2014.[5] In 2016 he followed up with a second PledgeMusic campaign for his second solo album Take What We Want (under the name Nasty Ass Honey Badgers).[6]
In 2017, he formed a band called Dark Desert Eagles, a tribute to the Eagles. The band features Extreme drummer Kevin Figueiredo.[7]
