Best dueling pianos we have had. Exceptional singers and entertainment. Wide range of material. Kept crowd involved and sang along to past favorites. Would be our first choice to book again.

May 2, 2016Great addition to an auction event!
We added "T" and Rich to our fundraising auction event this year as the after party and our guests had a great time! "T" and Rich made the planning process a breeze and helped to emcee our event. We had lots of compliments from our guests!

June 23, 2014Awesome show!
We hired T & Rich for our wedding reception and it was one of the best decisions we've made. Our guests could not stop raving about how much fun it was to have dueling pianos. T & Rich played non-stop and really went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable experience. They actually learned a song that was written by the Father of the Bride and played it for the Father-Daughter dance. Needless to say, T & Rich are top-notch entertainers and I would recommend them to anyone!

About
The Music...
We have one of the largest repertoires in the dueling piano business, and we pride ourselves on continually adding new songs!!! This show features the greatest popular songs from the 50's through today in a variety of musical genres. Along with all of the traditional classic sing-a-long songs such as "Brown Eyed Girl", "Margaritaville", "American Pie", "Piano Man", "Crocodile Rock" and "Old Time Rock and Roll", we also have an extensive repertoire of country, R&B, modern rock, polka, disco, classic rock, dance, alternative, hard rock, and even rap music. There is literally something in our bag of tricks for even the pickiest audience member, male or female, 8 through 80... ...And the audience always "steers" the direction of our show through their song requests and interaction.
The Show....
We are not your typical party band!!! To say that "We play the pianos and sing songs" would simply be an understatement. Non-stop audience participation and interaction is the cornerstone of our dueling piano show! We encourage the audience to sing-a-long, clap-a-long, drink-a-long, and submit requests of their favorite songs and artists. Our dueling piano show itself consists mostly of high-energy party songs delivered with a comic twist. But there's even more - our show also includes a seemingly endless slew of comedy routines and novelty numbers. We even bring audience members (alone or in groups) to the stage for dancing or for some good-natured ribbing and roasts.
Unlike a typical band, we Never use a set list, and no two shows are ever the same - the show is created literally on-the-fly - using a combination of audience requests and our personal arsenal of songs - songs that will have everybody singing and partying!!! Our rapport with our audiences insures that our show is always custom-tailored to the crowd's musical tastes.
