About Our Performers
Pat Todd and Brenda Casey studied piano at an early age — Pat in Pittsburgh, PA, and Brenda in Emporia, KS. Both went on to become educators. Pat taught high school math, and Brenda college French.
Currently, Pat owns and directs an eighteen-piece swing band — Tuxedo Junction: The Sounds of Swing, which performs throughout CT, NY, and MA.
After working as a “house” pianist for several CT restaurants, Brenda played for clubs and private functions — often joined by bassist Jeff Fuller. She was also a member of Tuxedo Junction.
A two-piano team since 1998, Pat and Brenda have entertained widely. In 2005, their annual concerts became fundraisers for ACKC. In 2015 they performed benefits for ACKC in Guilford, CT, and in recital halls in Essex, CT, Philadelphia, PA, Raleigh, NC, Overland Park, KS, Kansas City, MO, and Boulder, CO.
