Bakers Eddy - Intro

INTRODUCING BAKERS EDDY DEBUT SINGLECAN’T AFFORD IT’ 

Melbourne via Wellington’s favourite punks, Bakers Eddy return with new single ‘Can’t Afford It’ – an anthem for millennials the world over! To coincide with the single release, Ivy League Records is incredibly excited to welcome the band to the label family.

“Can’t Afford It is a song about living pay check to pay check and trying to make ends meet,” explains front man Ciarann Babbington. 

“I wrote it in my bedroom after coming home from the supermarket on a budget of $3.50, still managed to make a dope lentil Bolognese.”

Formed in Wellington, New Zealand when they were just 13 years old, Bakers Eddy began when three high school friends decided they wanted to do something other than skating with their time. Originally comprising of lead singer Ciarann Babbington, Drummer Jamie Gordon and Bass player Ian Spagnolo, the band quickly recruited Ian’s twin Brother Alex Spagnolo on guitar: “We got sick of Alex playing PS3 in the same room while we rehearsed, so we taught him an A chord and he was in,” – explains Ciarann.
