Who Is Innuenduo?
THOM PIECARA
My fourth grade teacher pushed me in front of a school assembly and told me I could sing...and I've been at it ever since. Got some real training at Philadelphia College of the Performing Arts...promptly forgot it while on Broadway and travelling around the country and world singing for anyone who would listen...doing the show tunes thing.
I took a break from stage for ...oh, 20 years or so and returned recently as front man with the enormously entertaining band Tidal Wave www.tidalwaveband.com
Innuenduo lets me indulge myself with the music I've always loved and wanted to sing. Thank you for allowing me that opportunity...and thanks and love to Nanci for just about everything.
JASON RAGAN
I’ve always been drawn to music. As a kid, I remember many nights falling asleep to the sounds of Jazz coming from my radio, summer days spent shooting hoops with my cousin while listening to Van Halen (their 1984 record), and my first guitar lesson. It all started back then…I was hooked. I’m almost always thinking about music, or searching for a unique or strange sound that I haven’t heard before. If you look in my CD collection you’ll find Beethoven, Michael Brecker, Tuvan Throat Singers, Colin Hay, Steve Reich, Steve Vai and indigenous music from Thailand.
These days I’m a teacher. I teach general music, first through fifth grade, and I also teach private lessons after school. I enjoy watching the kids in my class learn while having so much fun, exposing them to music they likely don’t hear on a day-to-day basis, and the satisfaction I get from watching them grow into mini Mozarts.
When not playing in this duo, I'll be playing in the Tidal Wave Band.
