Brunettes Shoot Blondes designed a unique music instrument packed with a whole orchestra to perform their new song “Houston” live.

The band brought a broken, vintage grand piano to life, by reengineering it into a hybrid, containing 20 instruments in it. The musicians came up with an idea of making a true analog apparatus which could play different instruments nested inside the rim just by playing the keys. So when pressing a key, the piano hammers beat a marimba, tambourine, cymbals or even castanets. There are also special mechanical devices that allow for the playing of cello, violins and organ.

It all started with the idea: why do not we play our new track on a special instrument that does not exist yet?
We installed percussion, tambourine, violin, melodica, cello, kick drum and other instruments into the vintage piano.

How did we manage to create hybrid grand piano that contains 20 instruments in 1?
Find the answers in the video.
