Project creator Dave Gundacker grew up in Anchorage Alaska where he learned to play guitar and drums. Dave has since spent years writing, recording and performing original melodic hard rock music. He moved to the San Francisco Bay Area in the 80 s where he performed in a popular Bay Area melodic hard rock/glam rock band. When the hard music environment of the 80 s-90 s changed, Dave stopped performing his original music to audiences.

A few years ago Dave decided he wanted to get back to writing, recording and performing his original melodic hard rock after spending some time performing in various cover bands. Dave enlisted Bay Area veteran Drummer Craig Martin, who was in one of those cover bands, to help him put together a recording project and they began recording some demo tracks.

When Dave saw local Bay Area veteran Lead Vocalist Timothy J. Bednarz performing with Craig at a jam session showcase he asked Tim to be a part of this new recording project. After hearing the tracks Tim signed on and the three of them went back into the recording studio to continue writing and recording. This was the beginning of what would become the Gundacker Project.

As the Gundacker Project's melodic Hard Rock sound was taking shape, Dave, Craig and Tim knew that this should be more than just a recording project. It needed to become a band. They recruited veteran Bay Area Bassist Win The Bassmaiden, who Dave had performed with in another local Bay Area band. It was then that the Gundacker Project was born.

With additional musicians performing and helping to perfect the songs which would eventually make up the debut album 'Plug Me In , Gundacker Project eventually called upon triple threat Guitarist/Keyboardist/Vocalist Alanna Bautista to complete the band in 2013. Alanna had been a member of a local Indie Rock band with Craig s son Cory Martin who happened to plays bass on a few of the Plug Me In tracks before Win joined.

The Gundacker Project packs an electrical charge into its melodic Hard Rock encompassing infectious hooks, powerful guitar riffs and full vocal harmonies. Lead Vocalist/Frontman Timothy J. Bednarz lights up the stage with his ring master presence and powerful voice. Dave Gundacker's razor sharp guitar licks and leads blast jolts of high energy which could fill any Rock arena. Drummer, and heartbeat of the band, Craig Martin pounds with precise and yet animalistic abandon while WIN! The Bass Maiden holds on to the driver s wheel as much as she slides and glides along the Bass frets and the stage. Alanna Bautista has a powerful singing voice and plays both guitar and keyboards -- a triple threat talent who completes the band.
