The Bakers Basement

Two-piece, Cleveland based, adventure-folk band the Baker’s Basement (tBB) features the eclectic musical stylings of vocalist/drummer Kate Dedinsky and vocalist/guitarist Adam Grindler. At their rhythmic core pulses an orange striped, homemade, bucket-drum concoction, the funky back beat on which Dedinsky performs standing up with her signature swagger and sway. The duo’s intimate sound, rooted in a spirited flavor of folk music and topped with playful vocal layers, often volleyed to-and-fro across the stage, offers a humorous yet heart-wrenching sonic signature that’s altogether their own.

A hidden gem of the midwest, tBB’s affectionate and spoken word vocal style bounces atop their unusual percussive foundation of odds & ends, a drum apparatus that the group calls the “Tempeh Kit”—when matched with triggered samples and Grindler’s acoustic & electric guitar methods, both finger picked and strummed, their playful and oscillating sound is solidified. Between songs, the duo endears themselves to their audience through storytelling and banter. All and all, a performance by this dynamic pair is an invitation into an intimate world of creative fancy and captivating chemistry nurtured over years of playing both stages and street corners.

Always active live and in studio, tBB has released a length album in November of 2024 titled “Down Down Domino” featuring singles like Love I Can Love, Why Does This Always Happen?, and Started Jammin' in the Basement. In July of 2025, the band released their newest single entitled “Singing to the Plants" with another, “Come To Terms with Going Ghost," due out in mid November.

TBB performs the midwest and beyond, and has shared bills with artists such as Melvin Seals (of the Jerry Garcia Band) and Keller Williams through multiple festival appearances at Nelson Ledges Quarry Park. tBB has also appeared at Kinda Spoopy Festival, Jubileego, and Cleveland’s Brite Winter Festival & Ingenuity Fest in addition to residencies at Cedar Point. While the duo's greatest passion is crafting, recording, and performing songs, they are also invested in creating homemade video works to match their music. Recently the music video for their song “Wild Wild Sheep”, which the band scripted, filmed, and directed, was nominated at the 2023 Cordillera Film Festival in Reno, Nevada.

"Some of their songs are almost spoken word. And they are hilarious! But they also have this intriguing side to them—it’s not just all humor. I love how they let their songs flow out of them. You can tell these two have incredible chemistry.”

— Amanda Rabinowitz, NPR

“This dynamic duo is empowered by the unprecedented ability to ensnare audiences in perfectly curated coffeehouses and dingy underground punk clubs alike. Effortlessly blending whimsy with unapologetically authentic human emotions, these Cleveland chameleons can captivate casual skeptics and devoted music connoisseurs with their profoundly resolute yet utterly approachable sound.”

— Rachel Gerboc, Bands in the Bus
