UPDATED PROFILE -- 2023/04/22

I am a professional traveling dueling piano player, as well as a solo piano player/singer. I am not looking for a band currently. We have a popular acoustic duo called The Wonder Twins, and we are also looking for an agent and to start traveling and performing.

Thanks for checking out my profile! If something changes, I’ll update this profile to reflect that. Don’t mind hearing from you about your bands and projects anyway, so feel free to send a message— but don’t expect a response from me here. Follow me on FB at ThatPianoChick & IG at ThatPianoChicky. Or come see The Wonder Twins (FB, IG, or live!).

Previous:
I'm a keyboardist and singer, married to a guitarist/singer. We have been in several cover bands as the lead singers, him as the guitarist (both lead and rhythm) and me as the keyboardist and lead singer, playing out weekly in Illinois for 10 years and then down in the Tampa area for the next 10+ years. Sure, I love the spotlight, but I'm super cool with standing behind my Korg Krome 88 and letting someone else take the lead singer position and assist on background vocals.

EQUIPMENT

I am a dueling piano player and have all the necessary equipment— including two baby grand pianos that I set up for gigs!

The Wonder Twins has a super sweet stage setup unlike anything you’ve seen before.

I use a Korg Krome 88 or Casio keyboard depending on the gig.

Our band has EVERYTHING you need-- speakers, sound system, mice, stands, advanced lighting, monitors, etc.
