Brass boys in the studio
Photos by Lucas Fritz
Richmond’s favorite brass band entered their resident studio this past weekend to record for their next album. The large group of brass players plus lone reedsman and drummer that make up No BS Brass got down to business at the eccentric and popular Minimum Wage studio, owned and operated by No BS drummer and co-leader Lance Koehler.
The guys recorded eight songs over the weekend, with a couple more to do to complete the album that should be out by September, co-leader and trombonist Reggie Pace said. A few tunes will have singing (or screaming) by band members, which explains photos of the dudes standing around a microphone sans instruments. Jesse Harper may contribute his vocals to a track.
Once again, Lucas Fritz was there and took some photos. Click here to check out the entire album.

This could quite possibly be better than the Easter Bunny.
I wonder, who pushes the buttons at Minimum Wage when Lance is playing?
Dean: Mu the cat actually pushes the button. She does a lot of work up there and is particularly finicky about drum sounds.
Mu has been the secret weapon for quite some time. She has a special pre-amp rig that we aren’t allowed to touch. Very territorial.
You got my hopes up when you said “Click here to check out the entire album.” But at least it’s coming!
Oops, sorry. We’ll all just have to wait!
It’s ok, after all this time FtBB is releasing two albums, I’ll have to rally one Wednesday night and get those.
