The Ten Speed story is one of friendship and a shared love of music. Over the years, the guys in the band have created memories and forged lifelong bonds. We’ve laughed a ton and supported each other through various valleys. Seasons of life have led each of us in and out of various bands but friendships among members, present and past, remains strong. Musically, we love the process. We don’t hear music as background noise but rather listen intently to get every ounce out of a song. We take this passion into rehearsals, writing sessions, and live gigs, finding joy every step of the way . This journey has led us to form Ten Speed: Casey Hanson (guitar and vocals), Drew Gilmore (guitar and vocals), Chris Moen (bass), Kyle Corrigan (keys, congas, vocals), and Dave Chvojicek (drums). 

I'm a solo musician from the Minneapolis area and I'd love to book a show at your venue. I've been performing as a one-man band (guitar, vocals, foot drums) in bars and restaurants for the last 12 years and play a mix of country, classic rock, and 80s/90s/00s pop covers.

Dueling Keys (DK) are two pianists who take turns squaring off for an evening of rockin’ musical fun and high-brow, low-brow comedy, where the audience actually becomes the show and the musicians are there merely to facilitate a memorable night; setting us apart from any other entertainment option you may consider for your next event.

All our DK entertainers have performed in bands and are fully aware that bands are for listening and often times act as a backdrop. Karaoke is interactive, however, not everybody is comfortable enough to attempt Bon Jovi’s ‘Living on a Prayer’ or Lady GaGa’s ‘Paparazzi’ in front of anyone without inordinate and consequential amounts of tequila.

This is where Dueling Keys stands on its own because DK is as musical as any band and actually more interactive than karaoke can ever claim to be. Dueling Keys blends theater production, with a dash of stand-up comedy and loads of sing-a-long, clap-a-long fun.
