Michael Sharp Music Ceremony and or reception pianist, and vocalist.

I require one dedicated outlet with power easily accessible to the location for running any keyboard and PA gear that may be necessary for your event.

Please inform of any special load in directions for the venue or of any last-minute venue changes or regulations that might pertain to your event.

Can provide a small PA for an extra $100 fee

Happy to play music from Apple Music between sets, and can choose from pre-set playlists, or allow the client to choose their own music.

I was the globally touring keyboard player for the American Idol hard rock band for 2 1/2 years before the pandemic, backing up, many celebrities from the show, then settled down with a family and have decided to teach full-time and devote my weekends to weddings and corporate events.

I love playing weddings, the energy is always perfect, everyone intoxicated with the anticipation of a good time!

I have played professionally for 20+ years, and besides touring full-time with the American Idol, hard rock gig, and various other artists, I also played in the number one wedding/corporate event band five years running on gigmasters.com

Anything with soul or a good groove!!

I normally like to arrive two hours before the ceremony, set up, usually takes 30 minutes to an hour tops, and regarding cocktail or reception sets that extend beyond an hour, I usually request one -fifteen minute break every two hours, while playing background music.

I’m happy to play outside, but ask for a covered area if at all possible,

Happy to learn specific song requests, usually limit three per set, (ceremony,cocktail,reception), any in addition to that, I request a 25$ per song extra fee.

Previous customers would describe my music as very beautiful yet exciting , a perfect blend of soothing tranquility and energetic anticipation.!
