wONKA bAR was formed in Frisco, Colorado by Archie and Chris in the fall of 1997. It wasn't until after the relocation to San Diego and playing on the street corners of Pacific Beach that they realized what they really had.
After meeting up with Claudio and playing as a three piece at local venues, they decided to complete the band by adding Bryon on drums and Kevin on bass.

Now with the nucleus of the band intact wONKA bAR is in the studio with the follow up to their debut c.d. Sidewalk Camper. With explosive guitar, creative vocals, and contagious rythms, they are an act not to be missed.
