We have recently had the pleasure of having John Chantry perform on our patio here at the Hard Rock Cafe in Niagara Falls, Canada.
What can I say! We were blown away by his talent! He is indeed the "Piano Man". John is a one man show that can bring a crowd to its feet and bring you down memory lane! We can't wait to have him back...

2014 Mother's DAY Brunch was extremely successful! A special mention to our live entertainment John Chantry on his spectacular performance and setting the mood as well as impressing all that attended. Thank you to all our guests and especially past and current clients and their families on attending this year's Mother Day. So many clients who gave the Atrium Team the privilege to host their special day attended our Mothers Day Brunch and it was great to see them again and catch up. By popular demand the Atrium BC is considering having a Father's Day Brunch and will request to have John Chantry return!!!

John started his love for piano from the knee of his father. Never having had a lesson for his parents fear of “music teacher refusal”, he learned to play by ear.
In the mid 80’s, John started touring Ontario with varies bands, one notably of which won the 97.7 Hitz FM contest, Geneva. Opening for artists such as Alannah Miles, Lee Aaron and others.
Soon upon his return he formed an 80’s band named 85 Alive. His talent for both drums and keys impressed many audiences throughout Ontario. There he met a good friend and fellow musician Glenn Groves, who inspired John to venture out on his own and create the show he has today.
