BAND OF THE WEEK-AKA Wingnut

Introducing...AKA WINGNUT!!

AKA WingNut was formed in early 2009. We have remained a power trio through the years covering songs from the great Chuck Berry all through the years to such bands as Papa Roach and Shinedown. Our musical interests range from a wide variety of genre's including some hip-hop and country. We remain dedicated to the rock-n-roll genre though. We are not setting out to sound like any particular artist but instead remain headstrong in keeping our own sound. We have originals in the making and hope to have a release of a couple very soon!

AKA Wingnut is:

Adam “Ace” Sponhiemer-guitar, bass guitar and lead vocals

Jarrett "Bonzia" Walck-drums, percussion, and vocals

Michael "Tex" Niebell-bass guitar, guitar, and vocals

Question 1: What three things would you tell someone that has never been to an AKA Wingnut show to entice/convince them to come to one of your shows?

1 - We really like to interact with our audience as much as we can. 2 - We put a punky edge to some of your favorite tunes. 3 - Always a good time at our shows.

Question 2: What are three future goals of AKA Wingnut?

1 - To write our own music so we can really round out a show. 2 - To continue to progress and be the best we can be. 3 - To always be professional and still keep our friendship alive between us and our families.
