[edit] Biography
The band is comprised of four of the five members of Clutch, Tim Sult, Dan Maines, Jean-Paul Gaster, Mick Schauer and has toured extensively throughout Canada and the United States. Taking a sidestep from the token Clutch sound, The Bakerton Group is completely instrumental and pushes into foreign territory with a more southern, psychedelic, improvisational feel.
The Bakerton Group released a -track EP, Space Guitars, which is available to download for free from Clutch's official website.[1]
Recently, the band has finished work on a new album, recorded at The Magpie Cage in Baltimore, Md., by J. Robbins of Jawbox fame. The album was released via the band's website in October 2007.
