An intuitive, passionate, and accurate performer, Jason sets the tone, transforms or subtly influences, based on your ceremony, corporate event, or private party.
Jason works with you to create a set list that really honors your special occasion. His intent is to design music that celebrates you and your guests, whether cocktail hour, rock/pop favorites, the occasional guest sing-along, or traditional classical pieces.
Jason Pelsey is unique in that he is equally skilled at performing & composing. He can compose for you by request or on the spot. Imagine an original music theme written just for you...make those special moments truly memorable.
Jason is an amazing player and performer! His skill and enthusiasm blew me away. He doesn't play just one style, but many, and all are entertaining. He had guest performers also, which further increased the repertoire and showed that he can be both a leading act and a great accompanist. If I needed an pianist for a private event, I would hire Jason
I was expecting to be entertained when I went to see Jason play; I was not expecting to be absolutely blown away, both by his musicianship and his professionalism. He is an incredibly skilled pianist, able to draw you in with his playing. And he's a nice guy, besides, who engages with his audience and keeps things moving with that special efficiency that you don't even notice, because you're too busy being entertained.
And awesome guy who makes amazing music.
I was first introduced to Jason and his music at the Piano Bar in Hollywood. A friend took me there after raving about his piano skills, but honestly, his review did not do Jason justice. An emotional musician, a player who can captivate an audience with his music (even in a busy bar), charismatic whether playing or speaking, a talented and creative composer -- Jason is truly an incredible talent. Although classically trained, he plays compositions inspired by several genres of music. And no matter what he plays that night, you can be sure that you will be moved by what you hear and the way the piano makes you feel.
Because of that first night, I now visit the Piano Bar as many Wednesday as I can. I am not the only person who does that. Jason has created an environment where people come back over and over just to hear him play. Over the months, I have brought several people with me in order to introduce them to his music and the best part is that they always return bringing their friends with them.
I threw a party at my home several weeks ago. I’m also a musician, so while planning it, I knew that one of my priorities was the presence of great music. When I found out that Jason also performed at events, I hired him on the spot to play during part of the gathering. It was amazing to see people react to his music. I truly believe that people stayed late into the night because of the incredible energy at the party.
Whether at an intimate gathering, at a large fancy event, or at a party in a bar, I would recommend Jason Pelsey to anyone. Passionate, creative, easy to work with, aware of his surroundings, incredibly kind – Jason is the real deal!
Jason was not on the most talented, kindest, most generous with his time pianist at our wedding events, but he was the most professional and gracious, gentle soul during the whole frantic 4-day celebration!! we were very grateful for his patience and most of all for his unreal talent! xoxo

Audiences are often amazed that Jason is a mix of passion and accuracy on the piano keys. Pianists are not often, both. There are those listeners who find themselves in joyful tears, while others are inspired to high five and shout for more of the piano gymnastics. At the right venue, his intuitive qualities shine through as he creates an ambient mood and sense of elegance for the occasion. Cheerful and easygoing, he can delight audiences, take requests, or compose on the spot! If you book him you're in for a treat!
Jason began playing piano at age 3, performing/composing at 10, and teaching at age 12. Raised in Oregon he re-located to LA in 2006 to complete his third University Degree in Music. Jason has composed music for several award winning independent films. His latest film work can be heard in the upcoming film: Supremecy, co-produced by Halle Barry.
Jason has been regularly hired for weddings, industry events, and ceremonies since 1998. He plays concerts featuring his original classical pieces, and regularly records and performs for local LA bands. He has a permanent artist residency at The Piano Bar in Hollywood on Wednesday evenings.
Jason's vast knowledge of music is not limited to classical pieces, he can play all your rock/blues/pop favorites as well! He delights in composing musical themes when requested to make an occasion truly unique and special.
Jason has a valid passport.
He has traveled to Texas, Nevada, Oregon, Arizona, Kentucky, Washington, and NYC for various events. He is happy to add an out of CA location to the list, should you require.
