The Show

Bobby McKey’s, the Washington DC area’s first and only dueling piano bar, opened its doors in November 2008. As a locally owned and operated establishment, we strive to provide the Washington area residents and visitors a unique, energetic and highly interactive dueling piano show that showcases the talents of our players. Most importantly we are a place where you can leave your cares at the door, have fun and become part of the show!

Two to four piano players in teams of two appear nightly on stage. Our audience presents their creative requests to our talented entertainers who take every measure to accept any and all requests - from Beyoncé to Beethoven, James Taylor to Jay-Z, Meatloaf to Mozart. On nights of four piano players, a band is formed during the rotation of teams incorporating drums, additional instruments, and harmonies. The wait staff is also brought to the stage several times a night to perform choreographed dances with the musicians. To help create a more dynamic show, audience members are encouraged to participate in “stage commands” like clapping, cheering, dancing & singing along.

Whether it’s a birthday celebration, bachelorette party, corporate gathering or just a fun night out, Bobby McKey’s is the perfect venue for you! We are the place “Where feeling good is easy.” Let us prove it.
