What is an Alter Kaker??? It’s a Yiddish term; it means an old fart. Is this band a group of Alter Kakers? Probably, but think of it this way: to become an Alter Kaker you need to have the will to never give up or stop trying, and that’s what they have. They go by the adage that the biggest obstacle to a band succeeding is them breaking up. And by the way, the easiest way to pronounce the band name is by remembering how it rhymes: Alter Kakers like mother truckers.
The Alter Kakers are an indie rock band from Toronto with Steve Bronstein on guitar and vocals, Cary Corvair on bass and vocals, and Dan Barsi on drums. They formed after meeting in another local band called The Dropjoys and noticing they had a shared sense of music and humor.
Their current single, called My Darling One, started as a letter written to and for Steve’s dog, Tori, who passed away in 2023. My Darling One was recorded in Toronto in January of 2025 and was produced by long-time collaborator Bill Bell, who has worked with such artists as Tom Cochrane, Jason Mraz, Alex Lifeson, and Andy Kim.
