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. One piano. Two artists. Zero cowboy hats.

Same piano. Different realities.

THE PLAYERS:
BOB WISEMAN – Founding member of Blue Rodeo. Punk pianist. Lo-fi provocateur. Think Monk meets Burroughs at a Toronto dive bar. Expect sound collage, biting satire, sonic left turns. Nothing’s off limits.
MIKE BOGUSKI – Current Blue Rodeo pianist. Ambient soul explorer. A master of restraint and reverie. Piano as landscape. Melody as memory. Quiet storms and cinematic swells. Musical cliff jumping.
THE NIGHT:
Each artist takes the same piano and launches in opposite directions - solo, stripped down, wide open.
One piano. Two deeply personal journeys.
No safety net. No genre crutches. No rodeo.
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, weird and slightly dangerous. Think of it less like a show and more like two sonic postcards from different planets sent through the same grand piano.
