I have been working on cruise ships as a piano bar entertainer for over 10 years and I've also performed recently in Aruba at Sopranos Piano Bar as well as Kalahari Resorts in Wisconsin. In addition to performing solo, high energy, 3-4 hour "all-request" interactive shows, I also have a Dueling Pianos company which provides the same; but with another "piano guy".

October 21, 2026We had Joe Hollywood perform at our Halloween party, and he was absolutely fantastic! He brought such a great energy to the evening and really helped make the night special. He’s incredibly talented, entertaining, and knows how to keep a crowd engaged. Our guests loved him, and we received so many compliments throughout the night! He was the perfect addition to our party, and we would absolutely have him back again. Highly recommend!

January 29, 2024We hired Joe to play/sing at our Vendor Party and company 40th Anniversary Party's cocktail hour. He was the best. Very personable and easygoing. Our team really enjoyed the variety of music he played and the fun he brought to our event. I highly recommend Joe for your next event.

May 15, 2023Joe came to our Clubhouse to create a piano bar atmosphere. He was so easy to work with and catered to our crowd. Joe has such an easygoing personality. Everyone had so much fun singing as well as being entertained by Joe. He even taught us a really cool and fun dance. We will definitely hire him again! You and your guests won’t be disappointed.

January 16, 2019My Mom and I met Joe 5 years ago on Independence Day when we celebrated her 89th birthday. From that point on, we tried to find cruises that Joe would be on. He did the most amazing thing for my Mom this year on her 94th birthday. He not only made a video singing Happy Birthday to her, but skyped singing their smoochie koochie song. It was the highlight of my Mom's birthday and I can't find the words to thank him enough.

JOE HOLLYWOOD
Joe had a love for entertainment and the sea at an early age, spending summers down the shore at Wildwood, Point Pleasant and Atlantic City.
His desire to travel grew, sparked by an early childhood vacation to Disney World and Epcot Center.
His love for rock and roll stemmed from his mom's infatuation with Elvis and his love for music grew with every Beatles song he discovered. Thanks to Billy Joel and Elton John, Joe discovered his dream to be a Piano Man himself.
At age 13, Joe's Uncle, and self taught musician, believed it was time to pass on the gift of music by teaching Joe the piano.
At 21, Joe was accepted into Belmont University as a Commercial Piano Performance student.
Joe spent three years in Nashville, then moved back to New Jersey to graduate Montclair State University with B.A. Humanities.
Joe's love for piano and travel transitioned into a full time job selling Yamaha Pianos nationally at Costco.
In 2013, Joe was offered his first contract on board the Celebrity Summit as a Piano Bar Entertainer and he is still cruising today
