Flying Ivories

My wife and I couldn't be more pleased that we hired the Flying Ivories to perform at our wedding! We booked two individuals (Adam and Brad) who brought their keyboard setups for our 33-person (vaccinated) wedding.

We were blown away! Both performers were tremendous not only as pianists (ask them to play Billy Joel's Angry Young Man), but as vocalists and MCs. I've never been to a wedding where the performer had to ask people to stop dancing because the food was being served. I think every single guest came up to us either during or immediately after the reception to say how much fun it was.

If you're even vaguely thinking about hiring the Flying Ivories, you should do it. They were a joy to work with throughout the process, very responsive, and above all fun. I'm already thinking how I can get them to play for a couple of professional groups I'm involved in.

James, Adam, and Brad - if you're reading this, thank you for such an amazing show and for making our wedding one that people are going to be reminiscing about for a long time!

My company hired The Flying Ivories for a virtual session during our National Sales Conference, which is tough to do. The whole team was impressed and fully entertained! Lots of fun!

Highly recommended. While planning, James was easy and fun to work with and answered my millions of questions with ease... We did not end up hearing them perform due to the pandemic but he was the most professional of all of our vendors and hope to use TFI in the future. Much better option than the "chain" competitor who I also considered.

Our team had a virtual performance with Steve and Jennie. They were so engaging and responsive to the vibe of our team even though we were all remote and the music was so much fun!

What a great experience from booking to playing! James was top notch in his professionalism and his performance. Together with Jennie they gave our corporate group a wonderful VIRTUAL concert complete with requests and interaction among 100 participants. We are ready to book with Flying Ivories again!!

Absolutely fantastic show. The Flying Ivories drove to upstate NY to perform at Ft. Drum, NY for our military ball and were a rockin' good time. Funny, lively, and quick on the fly, they had the crowd singing along, stomping their feet, and clapping their hands all night. They accommodated several very specific requests and were worth every penny. I would recommend them for any event that you need live entertainment. Bravo!

Dueling pianos at a wedding? It doesn’t sound right to most people at first, but booking the Flying Ivories was one of the best decisions!

I️ saw the Flying Ivories at my best friend’s wedding and it was the best wedding I️ had been to yet! I️ too doubted dueling pianos originally. They were absolutely amazing and kept the party going the entire time. I️ knew as soon as I️ got engaged they had to play at our wedding! James was easy to work with and quick on communication.

We had a specific rendition we wanted for our first dance and started to get concerned we wouldn’t be able to pull off our dance, but Brad was perfect! Why did we worry in the first place?!

Everyone loved them and we received so many compliments and others saying how at their wedding they’ll have to have dueling pianos. Of course, all the doubters said they were completely wrong. Not only are they entertaining these guys were rockstars and didn’t take a break to keep the party going! I️ would love to get married again just to have another reception with them. If you want “the best wedding” your guests have been too or “the most fun” book the Flying Ivories and they’ll make it happen!

The Flying Ivories (James, Matt, and Keith) definitely don't disappoint!!! They recently played our wedding and were a smash from beginning to end. They were super accommodating to our musical preferences as well as very responsive to our emails and phone calls. They kept the crowds energy flowing for hours on end. Definitely a great alternative to the over done DJ and lights routine. We received tons of compliments from family and friends. Couldn't recommend these guys enough!

The Flying Ivories, Brad and Jay, played our charity Beefsteak and I could not say enough great things about them. They were easy to work with, rolled with the night, played off the audience and had everyone laughing and singing along!

I highly recommend them for your next party, fundrasier, birthday party, wherever you can get them, USE THEM, they are great!!!

Brad and James were outstanding performers at our home last night! We had 70 guests and my phone has been ringing off the hook raving about the Flying Ivories and how did I find them! I can't wait to book them again!! Thank you for making my 65th birthday an absolute blast!!

We had the Flying Ivories at our wedding and they did an excellent job! This was a Saturday night, formal wedding at the Wilshire Grand. They provided us with classical music as guests entered, live music at the ceremony and cocktail hour and everyone had a great time at the reception! They were definitely versatile and worked with us to fit our specific needs. Family that had never seen dueling pianos were nervous that people wouldn't dance and have fun. They were quickly proved wrong! Brad and James (and they had an awesome drummer with them) did a phenomenal job MC'ing the event and taking care of everything we needed announced, ect. As well as keeping the crowd up and dancing and engaged. We have been getting calls all week about our great choice of entertainment!

Dave Gustafson was not only professional but very talented and fun. Our friends really enjoyed him and we would hire him again without hesitation. He was wonderful!

The Flying Ivories were so great. They were very accommodating when our event got off schedule. They brought an extra microphone for us to use for our speeches at no extra charge. And the dueling pianos, drum playing and singing was amazing! Our team had such a great time and danced our tails off. Thank you for making our event so fabulous! We hope to see you next year.

We were very happy with Flying Ivories. They were fun, entertaining, energetic and helpful. They did exactly what we asked of them.

The Flying Ivories played in our home for my 40th birthday celebration. They were amazing! A number of our friends had never seen dueling pianos--they left saying it was "the best party ever!". Brad was very responsive in our planning--giving us guidance as to the flow/plan that would make for a successful evening. They kept the party going late into the night with the perfect blend of musical genres based on requests from us and our guests. We cannot rate them highly enough--it was a night to remember!

Flying Ivories performed at our annual Christmas party in our home. Brad was adaptable during the planning and did a great job playing and keeping the party going. Easy to work with, fun, extensive song list and very professional.
