Brad Dean Alexander
Overview
I am a professional "Piano Bar" entertainer in Toronto. I have been working since 2004 on cruise ships, but am available for bookings in and around Toronto now. My show is a request based interactive show and I play a wide variety of music, but my strength is the typical piano bar genre which includes Elton John, Billy Joel, Neil Diamond, Beatles, etc. I can tailor my show to suit your needs for quiet beautiful background music, or a more interactive and energetic show....whatever you need!
If you don't have a piano/keyboard I can provide one for an additional $150.00
I also offer a live drag show!

February 20, 2021Best birthday celebration!
We hired Brad to perform for my birthday celebration. He was terrific! We’d certainly recommend him for any event that demands a top-notch pianist and singer. His request list is extensive, and eclectic. He is engaging and talented. The cruise ship’s loss is our gain!!!

February 13, 2021What a "surprise"!
I hired Brad/Brandi as a surprise guest appearance for my hubby's 40th virtual birthday party. Communication before the event went smoothly and Brandi was a hit! I want Brandi to come to all of my events from now on. Brad is a very talented singer & piano player and to roll that into a drag performance gives you a night of entertainment you will never forget!

October 22, 2020Outstanding virtual performer
I had Brad perform a private virtual show for my husband's birthday last week. I asked for him to play while we had a candlelit dinner, it was so romantic having him play in the background. He put personal touches like singing happy birthday, asking the type of songs we would like. The best dinner during COVID, Thank you.

About
I have worked as a piano bar entertainer for two decades, and for the last nine years I have been a featured entertainer for Carnival Cruise Lines. I am now one of the senior piano bar entertainers in the fleet. I am living on land in Toronto and accepting bookings for a variety of types of gigs/shows. I have a broad musical repertoire from many different genres, and a very professional attitude with a great sense of humour. I can keep an audience engaged, and get them laughing and singing so that everyone has a great time. I can also provide quieter beautiful background music with vocals to create an elegant ambiance during a dinner or cocktail party. I can provide whatever is needed, and it can change within the show if that is what the client would like to make the function a complete success.
I also perform in drag for a very unique and fun show! Brandi is my drag persona.
Additional booking notes
I have a digital piano and sound system that can be provided if there is no piano and /or PA system on site.
