Twi the Humble Feather and Fredrik played Pianos

“Comprising of three acoustic guitarists who all play and sing, often identical or nearly identical parts, the band revels in a cerebral kind of sweet and silly; like a reincarnation of whistles blowing out of a school bus, only here fingers leap in unison like ballerinas and quick gasps of breath make way for a trail of some very important monosyllabic sounds.” – Hooves on the Turf

Rock Around the Block

“The younger, very popular Pianos follows Arlene’s Grocery protocol, keeping the “Pianos” name and sign from the store that was there when it was conceivable that a piano store might make it on the Lower East Side…” —NYTimes.com
