Pianist/Reformed Chimney Sweep

Once upon a time there was a piano. Atop the piano was a tall, frosty beer. Eben took a long, hard look at the piano and the beer, and was struck by a sudden realization: \"If I learn to play that piano really, really well, I can probably get free beer.\" Thus were many years of music born.

Pianist/Lord Commander of Silly Geese

Meet Jimi: part piano wizard, part karaoke menace, and legally prohibited from being left alone with a fog machine. Fueled entirely by red bull zero, applause, and whatever chaotic energy lives inside casino lounges after midnight, Jimi has been pounding piano keys since childhood — mostly because nobody trusted him with power tools. Legend says he learned to play before he learned to walk, which explains both his musical talent and his tendency to sprint toward any unattended microphone.Jimi specializes in turning quiet dinner parties into full-contact singalongs, convincing strangers to duet against their better judgment, and emotionally ambushing crowds with Coldplay at least once per set. Sometimes twice if morale is low. He has never met a song request he couldn’t lovingly butcher into greatness.When he’s not battling fellow pianists in high-stakes musical combat, Jimi can be found ripping Magic the Gathering packs, pointing at random audience members like he’s selecting tributes for the Hunger Games, and insisting every song in human history could benefit from adding beatboxing. His greatest talents include playing songs entirely by ear, remembering deeply cursed 2000s lyrics nobody asked for, and surviving for alarming stretches of time on Waffle House, adrenaline, and pure delusion.Whether you want classy cocktail vibes, a packed dance floor, or your boss singing “Livin’ on a Prayer” in front of the entire company, Jimi has you covered.Good music. Bad dancing. Questionable decisions. That’s show business, baby.
