One dark and stormy night, at the junkyard looking for parts, Corwin Bolt encountered a group of lost Wingnuts. Each one with an instrument in hand, they needed a banjo player to complete their group and fulfill their destiny. Instead, they met Corwin, and the rest is history. Since that fateful day, Corwin Bolt & The Wingnuts have been haunting halls with junkyard jazz and leaving dismantled chords, ragtime residue, and crushed beer cans in their wake. May the screwloose melodies put a little extra fizz in your drink and a little stagger in your swagger.
