    CLIENT FEEDBACK:  

    JP is a true professional and a genuinely nice man. His piano playing is beautiful and magical. Our party was a huge success because of the ambiance he created with his music. From classical to contemporary selections-he keep our guests in awe! We did not want him to leave.

    JP Daine exceeded my expectations. I had many others perform before and believe he definitely highlight of the evening. I myself have played the paino for 10 years and was still blown away Mr. Daine's performance. I also enjoyed his fair price. Many other pianists gave me quite a hassle on price and repertoir, but Mr. Daine took 99 percent of my requests with no complaints.

    Jean Paul is one of the finest pianists that I have come across, not only in Houston but in the United States. I am a pianist myself, and am most impressed by his versatility and the size of his repertoire - it's awesome. He is one of the few pianists that is able to play classical music, jazz, soft roch, country, etc., all with the same level of dexterity and passion. It was a delight to have him play our Christmas party. Without his music the party wouldn't have been a success. Brad

    What a wonderful night! Mr. Daine and Mr. Lewis joined me in providing a very memorable night for our guests. I am a singer who has worked with these gentlemen now on three different occasions and I didn't think it could get any better, but it did. If you are looking for someone who will provide you with just the right music, as well as give you peace of mind for your event, you don't have to look any further!

    We had a wonderful time at our corporate party last evening and Jp Daine made it even more so. He is not only a very talented musician but also very knowledgeable in all areas of music. There were request and he played each of them without hesitation. We also have a dummer in our group and we asked if he could bring his drums and they play a few together. He was so willing to do this and they ended up playing more than we originally thought. We had a small dance floor and his different styles of music made it possible for slow and fast paced dancing. If you are wanting someone who is professional, that can adjust to any situation and play with ease and definately with a love for music, he is the man. We definately will have him back for another party. We are the ones who received from him last evening. Glemco, Inc. Leander, TX

    JP Daine provided exceptional entertainment value for our wedding ceremony and reception. Our event was located in a small, intimate setting and we required and artist that could provide entertainment over a wide genre to cover the ceremony, dinner and reception. JP delivered above and beyond our expectations for this event, not only delivering on special request songs, but also providing an extra saxaphone player in addition to himself and his singer. This produced a threesome that provided swooning melodies for the dinner and jazzy renditions for the reception, bringing all hands on deck for dancing and a good time. I'd reccomend JP to anyone for any type of event, and plan on using him again myself for future events.

    JP was a wonderful addition to our wedding reception. We met him prior to the event, and expressed the importance of our first dance song. JP took it upon himself to have an arrangement ready for the song that he played at the reception. He took the time and attention to care about our special day. Any song we wanted, he would play if he knew. If he didn't know it, if we told him prior he would learn it. I cannot say enough wonderful things about JP! Thanks, Tracy & Ryan Josefovsky

    I couldn't have been more pleased with Mr. Daine's performance and professionalism. He is a very talented and gracious person, a joy to work with. I am a singer and he went above and beyond by putting arrangements and charts together of songs I did not have. This is the second time we have worked together at the Buckingham with Derrick Lewis on bass and the show was a big success. I couldn't have done it without them!

    J.P. was a pleasure to work with and was able to play all of our requests. Just like he says, if he can "hum it, he can play it." He was even was willing to become familiar with a tune he couldn't hum and played it flawlessly.

    The evening was wonderful! The musical tribute for my husband's 50th birthday was a resounding success. JP entertained not only our party but the entire restaurant! His repertoire was fabulous - several were amazed at the variety he could handle. He was able to adapt to accompany many different vocal abilities singing birthday tributes from the kid's rendition of Ole McDonald had a farm to my singing Shania Twain to his mother singing Frank Sinatra! Thanks JP - we will see you again! rmc:-)

    J. P. Daine was PERFECT for our wedding. He worked closely with our wedding coordinator prior to the event, arrived and set up well before the ceremony and played beautifully throughout the wedding and reception. Several guests at the reception commented very positively on our choice of musician and he accomodated their special requests with no problems. We would strongly recommend JP to anyone who has a wedding or any other event that calls for a pianist.

    Mr. Daine is an absolute jewel! I am a singer from out of town who needed a piano and bass player for a private party featuring classic jazz standards. Mr. Daine arranged for a wonderful bass player, Derrick Lewis, as well as provided his own marvelous talent on piano. He also helped me with providing a sound system for the event which was extremely helpful as well. I certainly would recommend him not only as a solo piano player but for other vocalists who need accompanying musicians. He and Derrick were instrumental in making our party a great success!
    --Eugenia E.

    J P Daine was one of the most professional performers that I have had the privilege of meeting. He was so accomodating, lowering the sound when needed and improvising when asked. He even asked me the color of my piano and dressed accordingly. He was so good we hired him for an extra hour and he didn't mind. I'd use him again in a heartbeat - best part of the party! Dee Savoy
