  <body>&lt;p&gt;At the end of their fall national tour -- opening for Portland's Blitzen Trapper -- Baltimore band &lt;a href="http://wyeoakmusic.com/"&gt;Wye Oak &lt;/a&gt;played this session in our studios. Though their sound is much bigger, Wye Oak is a duo: Andy Stack and Jenn Wasner. They talk about the challenges and benefits of working as a duo, how Andy drums one-handed (playing keys with the other), and being signed to &lt;a href="http://www.mergerecords.com/"&gt;Merge&lt;/a&gt;. They feature songs from their recent album, &lt;em&gt;The Knot&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Recording engineer: Steven Kray with assistance from Saxon Baird.&lt;/p&gt;
