I am a piano player that plays Pop, Jazz and original tunes for weddings, birthdays and holiday events.
I play with my band or I can play solo piano. I have a Grammy nomination for playing with a major pop act.
I can even compose a tune in your preferred style just for your event. I look forward to chatting with you.

December 9, 2024The Cori Jacob Jazz Trio brought an unforgettable magic to our recent Fentanyl Awareness Jazz Concert, weaving soulful melodies and heartfelt rhythms that captivated everyone in attendance. Their performance was more than just music—it was a powerful blend of artistry and advocacy, seamlessly aligning with the evening’s important message.
Cori Jacob’s masterful piano work, combined with the trio’s impeccable synchronization and improvisational brilliance, created an atmosphere that was both moving and uplifting. Each note seemed to tell a story, drawing listeners into a journey of reflection and hope. Their ability to connect emotionally with the audience was nothing short of extraordinary.
The trio’s music not only provided an exceptional artistic experience but also served as a meaningful backdrop to an evening focused on raising awareness about the fentanyl crisis. Their passion for the cause was evident, and their artistry added depth and resonance to the event’s purpose.
We are deeply grateful for their contribution to this significant occasion. The Cori Jacob Jazz Trio set a standard of excellence and heartfelt connection that will be remembered long after the last note was played. If you’re seeking a group that combines extraordinary talent with genuine purpose, look no further. They are truly exceptional.

July 30, 2022What a amazing experience! The way they played at my father in laws service way truly one of the best experiences I've ever witnessed and all of the guests agree. It was something special. I'm sure we will have him and the guys at many more events do yourself a favor by booking.

May 18, 2022I can't recommend Corrie highly enough! With only four days' notice, he put together a top notch jazz ensemble for my fundraiser event -- he arrived extra early, made sure the setup and set list were just what I wanted (including last minute requests and changes!) had everything needed and was a joy to work with -- it went off without a hitch and everybody loved it. Absolutely five stars.

You can expect a professionally dressed band to perform the type of music you request for your event. We show up on time and prepared to play. I really enjoy playing piano so weather I'm playing solo or with my band it's a great time for all.
Cori Jacobs is from San Francisco but resides in L.A.. He is the leader of the Jazz band (3rd from the right in the profile pic). He is Grammy nominated for his keyboard work. He composes and writes for TV/Film and enjoys playing Jazz gigs. He uses different incredible musicians including singer for his dates. He can even write a special song for your event (There is an extra fee).
The audio sample is his original composition.
A power outlet of 120volts is usually what I need. However if there is a stage then I would need to patch into
the PA system and have a monitor or a connection so I can use headphones.
