MEET THE PLAYERS

F&F has a network of over 500 traveling dueling pianists. Below are just some of our favorite local players, feel free to ask about others!

Shawn Grindle

Pianist/Reformed Asparagus Addict

Shawn hails from the sunny shores of Kathmandu. His complete ineptness of all athletics led him towards the piano where he rose to a perfect level of mediocrity.

Leana Courtney

Pianist/Freelance Brain Surgeon

When Léana was 5, she was kidnapped by pirates. After her escape she worked as a piano singing wench at Bogus Tavern until she saved enough money to return to her home, an unknown remote jungle village in Mexico. She has since been revered as a Goddess for bringing the piano to her village.

Bre Podgorski

Pianist/Cat Behaviour Consultant

As an elementary school rug rat, scream-singing down the hallways of my conservative private school, I was often chased by horrified teachers demanding holy silence. Many years later (without the screaming and holy silence) I started exploring the world of dueling pianos and knew I found my performing home.

Adam Saxe

Pianist/Tadpole Trainer

Occasionally allowed out of his room, Adam enjoys playing the piano to whomever will listen to him. He often reads books by candlelight with a nice glass of wine while Kenny G plays softly in the background.

David Mahokey

Pianist/Muppet in Human Skin

David was born in a small town 50 miles south of Pittsburgh, PA where he honed his personality with Looney Tunes and Peanut Butter and Pickle sandwiches. He started playing piano at 6, because the “chicks dig it”.

Valerie Chaikin

Pianist/Dance Revolution Aficionado

Valerie was born to a lonesome woman from Wichita, Kansas who was obsessed with Steve Winwood – she was named after his seminal hit from 1982. When she turned 16 her mother sent her to Los Angeles so that she could, like Steve Winwood, be in traffic.

Katie Louise

Pianist/Space Traveling Alien

Katie was born on the planet Xenon. After a neighboring planet was destroyed and radiation was approaching, her parents quickly shuffled her into a space capsule to Earth. She is the only survivor and now lives among humans in Los Angeles. Her alien blood enhances her piano superpowers and she’s found her calling in dueling pianos.

Steven Ramirez

Pianist/Rejected Beatle

Steven was born in a hipster coffee shop with a full mustache and beanie attached. He then uttered his first words “Ice Lavender Oat Milk for $17, please”. Now he’s a dueler. It’s amazing what coffee does to a person.

Chris Gale

Pianist/Generic Estrada

Chris was on the clear, illustrious path to becoming a small claims insurance adjuster until one day at the bottom of a small creek near San Bernardino he found a lamp, rubbed the lamp, POOF genie. For some reason he first wished to know 3000 songs, second for a beautiful, wiener-ey singing voice, and third for the genie to surprise him with a secret third wish 20 years later. So he had to abandon his adjustment career and start working at the nearest dueling pianos bar. And he’s got that wish coming down the pipe which is pretty sick.
