A nine-piece band pays tribute to Elton John and Billy Joel with dual pianos at Jackalope Brewing.
The Piano Men are playing the Jackalope Brewing Patio on Friday, October 16, from 7 PM to 10 PM. They're a nine-piece tribute band that puts Elton John and Billy Joel on the same stage, with two pianos running side by side. The set pulls from both songbooks, and the two pianos are the center of it.
If you're familiar with the material, you've got a good idea of what to expect. They lean on the songs most people know by heart: 'Tiny Dancer' and 'Bennie and the Jets' from Elton, 'Piano Man' and 'Movin' Out' from Billy. The dual-piano setup means they can run through both catalogs in one night, and with nine people on stage, it's a full band sound rather than a stripped-back version.
There's a bit of Nashville history behind the group. They describe themselves as a powerhouse made up of the city's top touring and studio pros, and they've spent plenty of time on the road. They've toured with Jo Dee Messina, Thomas Rhett, Pam Tillis, The Band Perry, and Tanya Tucker, and they've played on Good Morning America and at the Grand Ole Opry. They bill themselves as the ultimate piano-duel act, and that's the whole point of the show.

The set is rain-or-shine, so if the weather turns, they'll just move indoors. It runs from 7 PM to 10 PM on Friday, October 16, at the Jackalope Brewing Patio, 429B Houston St.
