Gio Barabadze (Gio Bard Zero) Singing Pianist from Denver, CO

Gio's singing, piano, and guitar skills will dazzle your guests with virtuosity, whether it's packing the dance floor with old favorites, or setting the perfect ambiance for a dinner. Classical and jazz pianist, singer-songwriter, and guitarist fluent in genres ranging from flamenco to blues, Gio has played at venues like the Denver Performing Arts Complex, Dazzle, and Newman Center for the Performing Arts, and continues to wow audiences all across the United States. Gio studied classical piano through the Tbilisi State Conservatory in his native Georgia (in Eastern Europe) and jazz piano at MSU Denver, with Solomon Chapman, Dawn Clement, and Sam Harris. He also studied vocal technique with Ekaterine Chambers. As a self-taught guitarist, Gio's interest began with Classic Rock and, as his skills grew, expanded into flamenco, jazz, blues, and R&B. Relocating to the United States as a youth, Gio built his music career in Denver, eventually traveling and playing all over North America. His debut album "Songs of Life and Death" is out now and its live counterpart is an engaging performance art piece, involving costumes and elaborate theatrics.
