Low-key recording sessions in a Brooklyn piano store window.
Brian Whiton and Jeff Feddersen met in the frozen midwest of the 90s and have been friends and sometimes bandmates ever since. Brian learned everything there was to know about pianos, and, in 2011, opened Big Wrench Piano Care, a unique showroom of restored pianos in the heart of Brooklyn. Jeff studied gizmos and gadgets, and when Brian came across some well-worn vintage EPs, he handled the mechanicals and called Jeff in for the electronics. A chance meeting between their hot-rodded Wurlitzer 200A and a cabaret musician was caught on tape, and resulted in the first Big Wrench Session late in 2012. The Big Wrench Sessions continue to showcase local talent on the lovingly restored instruments in Brian's storefront window.
