Moonshine & Ale 6/14/25

We performed in New Braunfels again tonight at our home-away-from-home, Moonshine & Ale. Heather and I started the night out swapping between keys and drums until 10pm when we were joined by drummer Josh Spence. The show went great, and we helped a bunch of people celebrate birthdays in between all the requests. It was a fun night, and Josh sounded great. Thanks to everyone for hanging out with us once again! 

Moonshine & Ale 6/13/25

I got to play some songs tonight by The Cure, Dolly Parton, Radiohead and many more. Heather rocked some Mariah Carey, Harry Nillson, Evanescence, plus lots of others, too. That’s part of why I love this show. We never know which way the crowd is going to take us, and we both love following the flow. Heather is such a great partner for me, and I love our time performing together. We will be back for more at Moonshine & Ale tomorrow night! 

Moonshine & Ale 6/12/25

Pancho is such a great guitarist and person. Heather is a ball of sunshine and a fearless musician. I’m always happy to share the stage with them. We had a great time at Live Band Karaoke tonight, and we had many great singers. We also got to play some songs which rarely get requested. Thanks to everyone for coming out to sing with us tonight! 

Old Kress Live 6/7/25

Our second of two nights in Corpus Christi was great. Heather and I started off our day by driving from our favorite AirB&B (The Cheap Seats) to Padre Island National Seashore for some beach time. We headed back to our room and got cleaned up, then had some dinner at Thai Spice. We made it over to Old Kress Live about 8ish, and performed to a bunch of people who hadn’t seen our show before, and made some new fans of them. As the night went on, the club just kept getting busier until we ended at midnight, when DJ Zack took over and kept the crowd going. We’ll be back next month for more! 

Old Kress Live 6/6/25

We returned to Corpus Christi this weekend for a couple nights of piano bar! We had many requests right from the start tonight, as well as a couple of birthdays. We also had several people come tell us how much they appreciate our show. That always makes us feel good. 

Moonshine & Ale 6/5/25

Josh Holmes joined us at Live Band Karaoke tonight in New Braunfels. Heather and I had a great time performing with him. We had a busy night of singers! Lots of people put in requests to sing, and Heather kept the show flowing smoothly from the drums. We had some friends and fans in the crowd, including a surprise appearance from my niece, Anna! It was so good to see her and Josh tonight. Pancho will be back on guitar next week. See everyone then! 

Moonshine & Ale 5/31/25

We had another full room for our show tonight in New Braunfels. Heather and I had a good time playing everyone’s requests this whole weekend at Moonshine & Ale. Tonight, we were joined at 10pm by Reese Spano on the drums, which freed me up to play some keytar, and it was fun. Heather and I had a few special requests from the crowd for us to sing together, including “Summer Nights”, “Purple Rain” and “The Chain”. Thank you to everyone who came out to the show tonight. Heather and I will return this Thursday for Live Band Karaoke. See you then! 

Moonshine & Ale 5/30/25

We performed in New Braunfels tonight. We had a good crowd, including some visitors from England. They got the first request in of the night, and stayed until nearly the end of the night. We also had people from Colorado in, as well as other spots all over the country. It’s cool when we get visitors from far away, and it’s even cooler when they return year after year to see our show. Heather and I will return tomorrow night to take more requests. 

Moonshine & Ale 5/29/25

Live Band Karaoke went great tonight. We had lots of friends and fans in the crowd. Pancho and Heather sounded great, and I always enjoy playing with them. I’m glad we got to hear so many great singers tonight, and thank you to all who join us each week in New Braunfels. Heather and I will be at Moonshine & Ale both Friday and Saturday night this weekend, so come out and join us! 

Moonshine & Ale 5/25/25

We had a great crowd for our special Sunday night show in New Braunfels. Since many people are off for Memorial Day, we entertained a full room of party people. We had a guest drummer, Alex Lugwa, for a few songs tonight, and I hope we get to work with him again sometime soon. The night went by quickly because we had so many requests, and Heather and I were so happy to spend another holiday weekend at Moonshine & Ale. See you on Thursday for Live Band Karaoke! 

The Beltonian Theatre 5/23/25

The Beltonian Theatre in Belton, TX, has been fun over the past year and more, and tonight was our last show there for the forseeeable future. The owners are trying to sell the venue as they are moving on to a new phase of their lives, and Heather and I are happy to know how many great shows we’ve had there with Zachariah and his staff. We really love our times with all of them! Tonight’s show was another great one for the books, and we had an amazing amount of requests during our three-hour performance. Heather and I played as many as possible, and we really appreciated all the fun and off-center requests. Christine came up with us tonight and took some fun pictures and video, and I love it when she comes to shows with us. We took a funny shot together before our show across the street at the antique mall. Thank you to the crowd tonight for all the kind words about our show after we finished, and thank you to the Beltonian for providing us with a great place to present our show during our time working with you. Maybe we’ll return with whoever buys the place, but until then, see you at a show somewhere down the road! 

Moonshine & Ale 5/22/25

Heather and I were joined by Pancho and Denise tonight at Live Band Karaoke in New Braunfels. We had a great time together with a full room of singers waiting to take the stage with us. I aways feel good knowing all the great musicians I get to work with. Heather and I will be in Belton tomorrow at the Beltonian Theatre for our last show there for the foreseeable future  as it is being sold by the owner, and we will return to Moonshine & Ale for a special show this Sunday night because Monday is Memorial Day. Hope to see you at a show! 

Moonshine & Ale 5/17/25

Heather and I closed out our weekend in New Braunfels tonight with drummer Ryan Hall. We had a packed room for the majority of the night, and tons of requests. I can’t believe how long I’ve been performing in this place, and I never take for granted how good our crowd always is. Working with great musicians like Heather and Ryan makes shows easy. 

Moonshine & Ale 5/16/25

Heather and I played in New Braunfels tonight. We had a lot of requests, and the crowd sang along to many of the songs we played. We had several bachelorette parties and birthdays in the crowd. It’s always nice when people come to our shows to celebrate events like those. After the show, we headed back to San Marcos, where we found my yard full of sleepy deer. 

Moonshine & Ale 5/15/25

Two of my happy places are in water, or behind a keyboard, and I got to do both of those today. Heather and I did some snorkeling in the river before we headed to our Live Band Karaoke show with Pancho Garza. We ate dinner together before the show, and we talked about a bunch of songs which get overlooked on our karaoke list. Well, that all changed when the show started because we had the most off-center songs sung tonight by lots of good singers. I really loved the diversity of people we share the stage with. It’s like we get to fill someone’s rock star moment each week. 

Artesia Country Club 5/10/25

Our show tonight was a private event in Artesia, New Mexico. Heather and I played our dueling pianos with drummer Jarrett Wenzel holding down the rhythm for us. The crowd was full of nurses and medical workers there for an awards ceremony with a Hollywood theme, so we wore our shiniest clothes and played the most danceable tunes we could. People loved it, and it went great! 

Moonshine & Ale 5/8/25

Pancho, Heather and I were joined at Live Band Karaoke tonight by Denise Ramerez on keys. We had lots of familiar faces in the crowd tonight, including several a few former Moonshine & Ale servers. Andrea worked there back in 2018, and she graduated tonight! It’s so good to see people like her and Morgan and all the other people we’ve worked along side for years do good things in the world! 

Austin Proper Hotel 5/2/25

Jenn and Robbie are getting married tomorrow, and Heather and I played a dueling pianos show for the rehearsal dinner tonight in Austin. I played an hour of instrumental dinner music before our show, and when we launched into our 1.5 hour set, and they were ready to party! We had endless amounts of requests on our pianos. Everyone really enjoyed themselves, and the show went great. Congratulations to Jenn and Robbie!

Moonshine & Ale 5/2/25

I played bass tonight at Live Band Karaoke in New Braunfels tonight, and Heather was on drums. Julia Chisholm (from Boston) was on piano, and my buddy Pancho played guitar. He and I even swapped instruments for a tune tonight. We had a room full of new people, so we played lots of songs we don’t always get a chance to play. It was fun to get to play bass tonight, and the band sounded great! 

Moonshine & Ale 4/26/25

Heather is the best partner. We feed off of each other’s energy, and it makes our shows so much fun. Our crowd tonight started off strong and kept growing throughout the night. We had some great requests even when we first started out including “In The Air Tonight”, “Dancing Queen” and “Big Poppa” to name a few. At 10pm, our friend Jay Russell joined us on drums, and it gave me a chance to play some keytar. We kept the music flowing until 1am, and after taking some pictures with fans, we headed home. It was a good night! 

Moonshine & Ale 4/25/25

We had a packed house for our Friday night show in New Braunfels, TX! Heather and I slammed through a 3.5 hour long show, playing everything from Jerry Lee Lewis to Chappell Roan. I’m so glad everyone had fun with us. Heather and I will return to Moonshine & Ale for our Saturday night show, so join us! 

Moonshine & Ale 4/24/25

We had a good time together at Live Band Karaoke tonight. Pancho, Heather and I helped a bunch of singers though songs from 8:30p-midnight, just like every Thursday. It’s cool when the crowd really appreciates what we do, and we had lots of people tell us just that tonight. Heather and I will return for piano bar both Friday and Saturday nights this weekend, so come on out! 

The Beltonian Theatre 4/18/25

We performed our monthly dueling pianos show tonight in Belton, TX, and it went great. Lots of requests flooded our pianos, and we played a many as time allowed during our three-hour performance. We had a couple of birthdays in the audience, including a young girl who brought all of her friends in the front row, and another woman up in the top of the theater, so there were birthday vibes all over the place! Tons of great songs were requested, including songs from the ‘50s through modern radio hits. Heather and I always enjoy our nights in Belton!
