Blue Rodeo Pianists: Bob Wiseman & Mike Boguski

This isn’t a concert. It’s a piano séance in two acts. Bob Wiseman and Mike Boguski, two of Canada’s most unpredictable keyboard minds are taking turns dismantling and reimagining what a solo piano set can be.

Bob Wiseman: Former Blue Rodeo pianist. Punk pianist. Lo-fi provocateur. Think Monk meets Burroughs at a Toronto dive bar. Mike Boguski: Current Blue Rodeo pianist. Ambient soul explorer. A master of restraint and reverie.

Each artist takes the same piano and launches in opposite directions – solo, stripped down, wide open. Come for the clash of styles. Stay for the communion. This is piano as protest, as prayer or as whatever they feel that night. Two Pianos, No Rodeo is for those who like their art live, unexpected and slightly dangerous. One piano. Two artists. Zero cowboy hats!
