Bradley McCaw: Billy Joel – By Request at Brunswick Ballroom

Fresh from a sold-out headline season at Wynnum Fringe, acclaimed singer, pianist and former Ten Tenors performer Bradley McCaw brings an intimate new Billy Joel experience to the Brunswick Ballroom.

Winner of the International Cabaret Showcase, a performer who’s sold out New York’s iconic 42nd Street, and hailed by the Courier-Mail as “Brisbane’s Billy Joel,” McCaw has built a reputation as one of Australia’s finest piano entertainers, captivating audiences with his powerhouse vocals, virtuosic musicianship and heartfelt storytelling.

Now, for one special night, he strips everything back to where these timeless songs began—just one piano, one voice, and the songs that have become the soundtrack to generations.

You choose the setlist.

From Piano Man and Vienna to Scenes from an Italian Restaurant, The Stranger, New York State of Mind and the deepest fan favourites, the audience is invited to request any Billy Joel song throughout the evening. Bradley will perform them live, on the spot, making every performance completely unique.

No band. No fixed running order. Just an unforgettable night celebrating one of the greatest songbooks ever written, exactly as Billy first brought these classics to life.

One piano. Endless songs. Your requests.
