THE TUMBLING DICE

When band leader, Marcus Moreno, was tasked by Bay Area impresario, Daniel Segura, to pick his favorite, most Influential band to cover, that was easy. There's hardly any Rock'n'Roll outfit that has channeled the full breath & heart of the American soul like the Rolling Stones! So, he lost no time recruiting the solid rhythm section from his veteran Punk unit, the Rinds, including bassman & human sequencer, Dante Rojas, and doctor of the skins & '60s/'70s RnB & Soul, Josh Corey Jones. Luckily, Aaron Schiller was already deep into Keith's open tunings when he was asked to join, and his neighbor, Ranzo Taylor, had recently received his piano back from Georgia to get his Boogie back on. 

As the pandemic began to lift, an old Jazz colleague of Portland transplant Christy Mulhèrin (as well as Christian “Colorado” Thompson) urged him to respond to a call-out on Craigslist by the Tumbling Dice for an RnB saxist, knowing full well that the Stones were a foundational influence upon his hotspur licks. Upon discovering that “founding” member, Sean Lavelle, had to bow out due to his growing responsibilities as a First Responder, Christy couldn't resist bringing Christian onboard, since he knew first hand just how accomplished his own lead work is on guitar.

Further blessed to have his old Fairfield buddy, Son 7, become available to back his powerful lead voice with facetious harmonies, Marcus has led this faithful reproduction of the live grooves, touching verses, and unique guitar “weaving” that guided the Stones throughout their fabled '70s Golden Era.

Key Lime Pie takes the stage and serves up Classic Rock with a Latin vibe, a refreshing change from anything else you've heard.  Playing songs you know and songs you've never heard before, this San Francisco Bay Area band will transport you to a place where the past and future disappear, leaving you squarely in the moment.  Their original songs are greatly influenced by lead singer Angela Swanson's Spanish heritage as well as lead guitarist Ivica Dordevic's Serbian background.  In addition to their own world music material, KLP enjoys playing a wide range of funky, danceable covers including:

- Classic Rock (such as Beatles, Stones, Zeppelin, Dead, Allmans)

- Latin Rock (such as Santana)

- R&B (such as Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder, Chaka Khan)

- New Orleans Funk (such as Neville Brothers, Dr. John)

Rise to your feet as drums, percussion and bass lay down the groove, rippin' electric guitar, spicy piano and swirling organ, and vocal harmonies carry you away. Throw in some extended jamming, and it's an event to remember.

Tyler Poelle and Nicholas Ceglio were born and raised in Northern California. They met one another as teenagers doing local theater and became quick friends. Tyler traveled to the east coast for college and graduated with a BFA in acting from Carnegie Mellon University. Nicholas stayed on the west coast and spent four years majoring in Creative Arts at San Jose State University.

After doing classical and avant-garde-downtown-super-weird theater on the east coast, Tyler moved to Los Angeles. After doing regional theater in San Jose, San Francisco and Santa Cruz, Nicholas also moved to Los Angeles.

Since then, Tyler has been seen pitching products in national commercials for Liberty Mutual, Schwab,  Audi, Wendy's, Dunkin' Donuts, Budweiser, AT&T, Progresso, Nature Valley, Amazon, Applebees, Yahoo, and many more, while Nicholas has been performing both supporting and leading duties in various local SoCal  rock bands since 2005.

Throughout everything, Tyler and Nicholas have consistently been writing, recording and performing together. In 2018 they self-produced their first official self-titled EP, and in 2023 they released new songs from their upcoming second EP "The Flowers Have Gone," which will be released in full in 2024. They are currently recording their first official full length LP, titled "Remy," due out sometime in 2024-2025.
