Jeff's solo debut CD. Along with co-writer/player Kevin Fabbi, they have taken some incredible new musical idea's to the breaking point. The debut CD (Practically Normal) from "Wrench In The Works" was made available in late 1997.
Combining post punk fusion, with rock, alternative overtones and 60's flair, this musical team had opened eyes and kicked some ass around town, especially after the live band was assembled in 1997.

The album is a recorded selection of compositions, rather than an industrial "all at once" sounding collection. "We took the

Beatles/Martin approach" says Jeff, in that we've recorded songs individually, slowly piecing together the sounds, tones, and the emotion. It's a definite album, but each song is uniquely it's own.
The album was recorded at Jeff's own "Oh No!" Music Studio in Ottawa, Ontario, and was mastered at DISTORTION STUDIOS.

Back to the band: the "Wrenchmen" lineup started out in year one and also included David Szwec on guitar and vocal, as well as Todd Pilon on Bass.

The track "Bad Boy" appears on the CD "Rockin In NYC". A compilation of New York City bands on the Lucky Dog label out of Boston, and "Breaking The Silence" appears on the Ottawa CD "Ottawa Underground", issued by former Alanis songwriter/ producer Leslie Howe. Also, "Jenny" made it to

The Canadian Indie Box set, which contains 100 songs from 100 bands across Canada. Hey! Is that a Wrench in your pocket?

This album is being reissued as a enhanced CD in the summer of 2005, with bonus tracks, downloadable photo's, lyrics and other items, as well as full screen Quicktime video footage of a performance of "The Eighties Syndrome", live, at the Corel Centre.

Wrench was a finalist band in the first ever Tech Rocks events held in Ottawa. They, along with several other top notch acts, took the main stage at the Corel Centre, opening for Canadian rockers Big Sugar.This classic Rich Rags track had been revamped and rewritten to fall in line with a 90's backdrop.
