THE BAKERS rock Battle of the Bands, Walleye Weekend June 14, 2009

The Bakers | Retro amps spit an equal mix grit and vintage soul, spouting expertly distorted bass lines and jarringly tight drum beats. Slather on juicy guitar licks, and The Bakers is stirring one finely tuned indie-rock pot. Laced with an unapologetically catchy air, The Bakers' set list manages to sound familiar while steering completely its own course.

Apart, Brandon Heise (guitar, vocals), Andrew (Zimmy) Zimmerman (bass, vocals) and Erik Gunderson (drums) are three of the region's most sought-after musical talents; together, they comprise a band that refuses to conform to cover-band status and owns its original swagger unlike most any Midwestern band.

The boys are cranking up their set list to ROCK YOUR SOCKS OFF at Fond du Lac's Walleye Weekend on Sunday, June 14, at 2:30 p.m. on the CitizensFirst Credit Union/K107.1 FM Stage East! Head over to catch the festivities at this International Award-Winning event and root The Bakers to "No. 1" during the 2009 Battle of the Bands!
