The Bunk

About Me

The Bunk was formed in late 1994 in the N.W. Indiana region by 4 members from the band "Psychic Santa Clause". Original Bunk members included: Chris Bronowski, Sean Krakhaus, Tony Buco and Terry Burns.

In 1997 the cast changed 2 include Drummers Greg Piaseczny and "Cactus Joe" Corrado, and Bassist Brian Gulley who also played Guitar and Drums on some studio recordings.

The band released their album "Veil Of Parasites" in 2005, produced by Jason Machiela who is also the featured bassist on the album.

The current lineup includes: Mike Bonner-Bass/Vox/Recording Engineer, Sean Krakhaus-Guitar/Vox, SpiralBlue-Keyboards/Synths/Sequencing, and Andrew Bray-Keyboards/Synths. The group released a new album "Splendour" on Easter 2008. Splendour is the bands most ambitious and well produced album 2 date. Splendour successfully navigates, "Alternative Psychedelia", fusions of "Funk/blues", to full on "Space Rock" & "Spoken Word Improvisation". Splendour also features "Funkshoe" guitarist/singer Rod "Rollomite" on the track entitled "Dance".
