Pianists and vocalists Jimmy Martin (Ivories Restaurant and Cabaret, Carnegie Hall with Carmel Quinn, Chanhassen Dinner Theatres, etc.) and Drew Jansen (“How To Talk Minnesotan: The Musical,” “Church Basement Ladies,” “Mystery Science Theater 3000,” etc.) return to one of their favorite venues to perform their unique mixture of music and merriment. Now based in Little Rock, Arkansas, the two have a combined total of well over a century in the entertainment field.

“Drew Jansen and Jimmy Martin, a couple of cut-ups as well as a couple, put on quite a show in their duo-piano-and-songster personae as “The Piano Men.” Their second annual ‘What Matters Most’ musical celebration, a program of showtunes and memories, wowed a near-capacity crowd.” —Eric Harrison, Arkansas Democrat-Gazette
