The first stop for Ebony & Ivory was Lake Sumter Community College in Leesburg, FL. The Duo played two concerts during the weekend of November 13 and 14 to sellout crowds. Special thanks to Mariah Delgado, LSCC Foundation Special Events Coordinator and Greg Cumbaa, Paul P. Williams Theater Technical Director. The Duo was warmly received by the audience and performed their signature " banquet" of musical selections.

Next on the tour was a concert on November 19 in the First Arts Series at First United Methodist Church in Fort Walton Beach. The First Arts venue is a lovely setting for a concert with a fine piano; special thanks to Karen Tindall for making the arrangements and providing such heartfelt hospitality to the Duo.

Ebony & Ivory's final tour date was on December 3 at Polk Community College, where the Duo performed its Christmas Show. With a wide array of Christmas music from a Medieval Carol to Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas and Frosty the Snowman, there was "something for everyone." The Duo performed such classics as Ave Maria and Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring, the contemporary Christian classic Mary, Did You Know?, three of Andrew's original piano rags based on familiar carols, and a pot pourri of popular Christmas songs. Many thanks to Sharon Bevis, who was instrumental in making the arrangements, and to James Sharp, who was of great technical assistance.
