Wiener KidsThe brainchild of drummer/composer Jordan Glenn, Wiener Kids began as a duo with guitarist/composer/musical thinker, Steini Gunnarsson in 2007. After Steini moved back to his native Iceland, Jordan picked the project up again a year later, this time with the help of reed masters Aram Shelton and Cory Wright. The music is inspired by small dogs, old bikes, Muppets, cheap Halloween decorations, homemade instruments and other wiener kids. It’s fast and slow. It’s loud and soft. It will make you laugh and make you cry. It’s music made by ex/current weaklings for everyone!The Wiener Kids Family Band Formed in 2011, The Wiener Kids Family Band performs classics from the Wiener Kids book, specially arranged for the unique 10 piece ensemble.  The group features some of Wiener Kids’ closest friends from the bands Jack O’ The Clock, Beep!, Kapowski, and Grex, all under the curious baton of Jordan Glenn. Featuring Christina Stanley, violin; Kate McLoughlin, bassoon; Rob Ewing, trombone; Aram Shelton, alto sax; Cory Wright, clarinet; Damon Waitkus, banjo; Karl Evangelista, guitar; Michael Coleman, keyboards; Kevin Thaxton, bass; and Jon Arkin, drums
