On October 16, 2026, Felix And Fingers brought the unmistakable energy of dueling pianos to a fundraiser at Warwick Hills Golf & Country in Grand Blanc, Michigan. The evening blended the polish of a well-run awards program with the spontaneity of a request-driven piano show, creating a memorable night for guests, organizers, and first-time dueling piano fans alike.
From the moment the Felix And Fingers team arrived, the event had the feel of something thoughtfully planned and warmly hosted. Casey and the performance team showed up early for load-in, with the drummer following soon after. After soundcheck, they reviewed the timeline with Liz, helping ensure the fundraiser flowed smoothly from the formal portions of the evening into the full-throttle entertainment.
A Smooth Start at Warwick Hills Golf & Country
Warwick Hills Golf & Country offered an elegant backdrop for the fundraiser, and the behind-the-scenes experience matched the quality of the venue. The band green room made a strong impression, giving the performers a comfortable place to enjoy dinner and prepare before taking the stage. That kind of hospitality can make a real difference at live events, especially when timing, transitions, and energy all matter.
Liz and her team were described as easy to work with throughout the evening, and their excitement for a dueling pianos show was clear. For many guests in attendance, this was their first time seeing Felix And Fingers, which added a special sense of anticipation. A fundraiser often has several moving parts, and the Warwick Hills team helped create an atmosphere where the entertainment could shine without disrupting the purpose of the night.
Before the main show began, Felix And Fingers provided walking music and filled natural pauses during the awards portion of the event. Rather than treating this as simple background music, the performers had fun weaving in clever musical quotes that sounded elegant and subtle in the moment. It was a creative way to keep the room engaged while supporting the formal program.
That adaptability is one reason dueling pianos works so well for fundraisers. The performers can move between sophisticated atmosphere, quick musical cues, comedic moments, and full-room sing-alongs without requiring the event to stop and reset. At Warwick Hills Golf & Country, that flexibility helped the evening feel seamless.
Dueling Pianos, Guest Requests, and a 1,000-Roses Moment
Once the dueling pianos show kicked into gear, the room came alive. Casey and the Felix And Fingers team took requests throughout the performance, giving guests a direct role in shaping the soundtrack of the night. That request-driven format is what makes dueling pianos so interactive: no two shows are the same, and every crowd has the chance to steer the music toward their favorite eras, artists, and guilty pleasures.
The fundraiser’s standout visual element was a 1,000-roses installation placed between the pianos. During the show, the performers collected roses from the display, turning it into a playful and memorable part of the entertainment. It gave the evening a distinctive look and offered a unique interaction point that guests could connect with as the music built momentum.
The crowd responded with tons of singing, proving that many guests were more than ready to join the party. For attendees who had never experienced Felix And Fingers before, the show offered a quick education in why dueling pianos has become such a favorite for fundraisers, galas, corporate events, weddings, and private celebrations. The format invites participation without forcing it, and once a few familiar songs hit, the room naturally opens up.
What made the night especially effective was the balance between professionalism and fun. Felix And Fingers supported the awards show, respected the fundraiser timeline, and still delivered the lively, unpredictable entertainment guests expect from a dueling pianos event. By the time the requests were rolling in and voices were raised in song, Warwick Hills Golf & Country had become the perfect stage for a high-energy celebration.

After the final songs, Casey and the team packed up and loaded out quickly, closing the evening with the same professionalism they brought to the start.
