- **Event Description**: 5-3 Band 
The Band/Duo 5-3’s Vocalist Walter Powers and Guitarist Chris Bourne have known each other since middle school. 30 plus years of friendship. At Goodrich they became acquainted through mutual friends like kids do. Later in life they formed a closer bond when they had an opportunity to play together in a project called Junkman dating back to 1994/5. The band was formed in the post-industrial town of Akron, Ohio. Junkman was a local hit and this was due to the two of them writing most of the songs for the group if not all. Walt’s lyrics and vocals all day. Most of underlying music is about 90% Chris Bourne’s riffs and arrangements. The new music was well received by old and new fans. Their debut CD “Peace Forgotten” was recorded at The Grooveyard Recording Studio and really helped with getting them up and running.  It was the studio’s first project and the CD came out sounding absolutely amazing!  Nobody in town could touch the songs or production on the CD. They tracked 2 albums there and other material at other studios. The guys were moving CDs, shirts, hats, and dog tags left and right. From there Junkman had the ability to play with various national acts at the time and gained a huge following. From playing Peabody’s, JBs in Kent, Flash, The Akron Agora, Crossroads, Ramones, Sadie’s, and the list goes on. There was some out-of-state travels of course. They opened for Sevendust, Big Wreck, Coal Chamber, Corey Glover, and more. They actually played with a lot of 80’s Glam Metal acts too even though our music was so different. We played on bills with Warrant, Slaughter, Quiet Riot, LA Guns, Dokken, Gilby Clark, and a ton more. The project disbanded due to life’s struggles of all sorts, but Walter and Chris remained friends. They went on to get together here and there over the years to perform some of their music with a new outlook and sound. There were a couple of shows at The House of Blues CLE and a few smaller venues, but the main thing was they kept writing together over the years.
