PMJ is more of a collective than a band, with a constantly-changing roster of singers and musicians. What is constant is band leader and pianist Scott Bradlee, and the retro style. There is a ton of stuff on YouTube, these are some of my favorites.

DIY Polishing Machine

This was my initial attempt at a polishing machine. Not pictured is the shroud I made for it to contain the spray.
