About Vendor

Hello! Thanks for checking out my page. I am available to perform at many different kinds of events. You choose the instrumental/vocal format (solo piano, duo, trio, quartet, full 9 piece band), genre (classical, jazz, pop, church music) and ambiance (background cocktail atmosphere to full out concert). You can design the musical experience to meet the needs of your event and guests. I am easy to work with and professional. Performing about 200 gigs per year, I also book up quickly so please contact me with your date soon if you are interested. If I am unavailable for your event I will help set you up with one of my fellow pianists. My wife is also a fantastic photographer so ask me about our discounted package deals. Thanks so much!
