I’m a singing pianist who performs a wide variety of audience favorites from R&B, Blues, Hits from the 40's to Current Pop, as well as my own original music. I can play in high energy environments or I can keep it quieter and more melodic for quieter events!

Yes I have 3 PA's from very small to a larger system for a big area. I can provide lighting for myself and some ambient dance floor lighting.
Yes, I am able to play music from Spotify before, after and between sets. I'm happy to choose the music or let the client choose the music.
I have 3 PA's from very small and quiet to a larger PA for big areas. I listen for feedback and happy to adjust volume. My rule of thumb is to watch people talking if they are leaning into each other to hear, then I immediately turn down.
Best gigs were as my brother's keyboard player when he had a Nashville recording contract and radio play and we would do concerts.
I love a place that has a nice chill vibe that I can just relax into. That said though I can be laid back or Up Tempo and play to whatever audience and what type of music they want.
I first played professionally in my brother's bands as he was 12 years older than me and got me my start. From age 18 on I became a full-time musician and traveled playing over 300 dates a year all over the western United States and Alaska. I have worked in many venues from a rock bar to a dance club to a casino cabaret to a lot of resorts and high-end hotel lounges.
Fleetwood Mac, The Eagles, Linda Ronstadt. Any song by those 3 acts. Although it sounds out of the mix from the above but I think Sweet Child of Mine by Guns n' Roses was one of the greatest written songs.
I have a 30 to 45 minute set up as a solo act. I play the first set an hour then a 15 minute break and then 45 minutes sets after that. I prefer 2 set gigs but can do 3.
Outside can be lovely as long as it's not blistering hot and I'm in direct sunlight.
I'm happy to learn up to 5 songs in advance for a special occasion. I have a huge repertoire to pull from and can usually blend it to fit whatever audience or ages that I am playing for.
That I have a great sense of humor and I smile a lot. Biggest compliment I get is my skill on keyboards and that I have a very sultry voice.
Great attitude, smile a lot and truly have fun.
I have great communication and go over all the details of your event and work closely to make sure I am the best fit so that I may do the best job.
I personally always dress up probably fancier than need be.. Its showbiz! But I do check with the venue and get the details what exactly is the appropriate dress code for the event.
