Join two of San Diego's most seasoned duelingâpiano pros for a relaxed, singâalongâstyle afternoon at Cicciotti's Trattoria in CardiffâbyâtheâSea, just steps from the beach. From Motown and Sinatra to Broadway hits and modern rock, Tom and Brian take crowd requests and play off each other in a friendly, backâandâforth piano faceâoffâspiced with laughter, audience participation, and the signature seaside atmosphere.
With tables filling quickly for this oceanâview gig, plan to arrive early for lunch or cocktails and settle in. Expect an informal, feelâgood show where song choices come from you, laughter happens often, and the duo's professional stageâcraft makes it all feel effortlessâeven for newcomers.
Tom Bagley brings over twenty years of experience at San Diego's iconic Shout House duelingâpiano barâhe's played across continents (including Africa and California), navigated repertoire from rock to jazz, and built a reputation for commanding the stage with effortless showmanship.
Brian Wahlstrom, Cicciotti's own piano entertainer, combines a master's degree in classical voice from Manhattan School of Music with extensive experience from Carnegie Hall to Beijing's NCPA, where he was among the first American singers to perform in Mandarin. He effortlessly blends Broadway, operatic pieces, and crowd pleasers into a cohesive, engaging performance.
