At first, Mischief Brew consisted of only Petersen on an acoustic guitar or mandolin , playing songs off of the Mirth demo. In 2003, Petersen released the Bellingham & Philadelphia split with Robert Blake , and the Bakenal CDEP. After extensive acoustic touring in support of the first two releases, Petersen assembled the first full-band incarnation of Mischief Brew, featuring Chris “Doc” Kulp (of Red Devil) on drums and Sean “Shantz” Yantz (of Evil Robot Us’ and Abusing the Word) on bass. In 2005, Petersen released his first full-length, Smash The Windows , featuring guest spots by artists from Leftöver Crack , World/Inferno Friendship Society , and Guignol . This release saw him experiment more musically, with styles ranging from gypsy-folk to swing.
