Spencer Smith picked up the guitar at the age of 10. His parents moving around alot as a kid, guitar become a stable centering aspect in his life that he has yet to outgrow. Moving from Arlington, Tx to the Pacific Northwest, becoming friends with Evan Mcbride over a love of hip hop, they developed a relationship over making hip hop with live instruments and then freestyling over them. After moving to Portland and returning, Spencer started the Orchestrion with Bassist Gavin Tull-Esterbrook who played upright bass and Lynnette Barnier, who played cello. Evan came in shortly after and started playing drums. After practicing for a year, Kris worked at a coffee shop nearby and offered to record the Orchestrion in its incarnation. Not too long after, Gavin left to take care of his new boy and focus more on family. Lynnette too left soon after, ditching the band to go to clown school in Vermont. Kris stepped up and started playing bass for a recording project we had with the Art institute. He has since become a mainstay of the band. Playing throughout seattle and in portland, the Orchestrion is excited to plan and present to you upcoming shows and tours and added instrumentation as the time comes.Stay tuned for further incarnations.....
