Biography
As Night
Falls
In 2004, Heather Baker and a group of friends formed the band As
Night Falls. But shortly after the release of their debut EP
The End of All Innocence, Baker left the band while the
remaining members formed a different band. [2] [3]
The Iron
Maidens
On February 2007, Baker joined The Iron Maidens after months of
auditioning for a guitarist following the band's dismissal of
member Elizabeth Schall (currently with the
Death metal band Dreaming Dead). She joined vocalist Aja Kim, guitarist Sara Marsh, bassist Wanda Ortiz and drummer
Linda McDonald
as part of the Maidens' 2007-2008 lineup. As a member of the
Maidens, her stage name was "Adrienne Smith," a female version of
Iron Maiden guitarist Adrian Smith.
On late June 2008, The Iron Maidens' official website announced
that Baker had departed from the band to focus on family
commitments and her solo band The Afterlife.[4]
The
Afterlife
Baker formed The Afterlife in 2006 with her best friend Rachel
Sinfield. Starting in 2007, they collaborated with producer Sergio
Chavez to record tracks for a future CD release. Two demo tracks
are currently featured on their MySpace site. [5]
On October 2008, Sinfield left the band due to personal
problems. She was replaced by guitarist Kevin Teale. The Afterlife
also consists of bassist Joey Caligiuri and drummer Robert
Zimmermann.
