Rags with his English degree from Sacramento State and a supplementary degree from Chico State in a self-designed, interdisciplinary major involving computer-generated musical technologies, Tuttle is easily imagined as the kind of guy that would make a great music teacher. But his talent as a pianist and love of live performance have instead kept him on the road as a professional musician for most of the past 20 years. |

Rome Balestrieri Born and raised in Wisconsin, armed with a BFA in theatre from UW-Milwaukee, Rome moved to Los Angeles in 2009 to pursue a career in music performance. His love of music has taken Rome across the Atlantic to perform in Europe, aboard cruise ships, and to almost all of these fifty United States, and he is just getting started. Unable to escape the harrowing good times at Johnny Foley's, Rome comes to San Francisco as often as he can to perform your favorite songs, and the songs you forgot how much you loved. While home in Los Angeles Rome writes original music, performs with Radioteque, the World's Most Dangerous Radiohead Tribute Band, is an abstract-expressionist painter, and spends as much time as he can with the woman he loves. With his unapologetic style of performance and snide sense of humor, Rome is just another of the many reasons you are guaranteed to remember your Johnny Foley's experience, for better or worse. |

Troy Neihardt Originally a Chicago boy, I come to the dueling piano show at Johnny Foley’s with a passion for the piano and people. I have enjoyed entertaining audiences across the country – from Chicago to Vegas, New Orleans to SF, and across the world – from Norway to Cancun to Singapore. I will play, or try to play, any musical instrument in front of me, but I have a special fondness for the harmonica and accordion (when I’m not tickling the ivories). So, consider this your personal invitation to come on down to Johnny Foley’s Dueling Piano Show where I will happily sing and play your rock, pop, blues, and classical requests (and may even be bribed to play country music). Cheers - TRoyBoy |
