“Ricky provided an excellent experience for the 55+ Gatsby Gala. He took requests and kept the guests engaged. I found him extremely pleasant and easy to work with. ”
Gary Allen
Overview
I am an aspiring pianist with experience performing both solo and in ensemble settings. My playing spans a variety of styles, allowing me to adapt to restaurants, bistros, private events, retirement communities, etc.
I have a strong ear for tone, timing, and atmosphere, and I focus on creating music that enhances the environment without overpowering it—whether that means elegant background piano or more expressive selections when appropriate. I approach every performance with professionalism, reliability, and respect for the space and audience.
I am currently available for bookings and am committed to delivering a polished, enjoyable musical experience tailored to each venue’s needs.
