Must see - Lenny & anybody, especially his wife Angelia.

I've seen Lenny several times in the North side establishments in Cincinnati. I can not wait to book him for upcoming events this coming spring. He grew up touring with his family and boy does it show. When you see & hear his magic, you will understand and appreciate the difference between Professionals and all the rest. You will NOT be disappointed in any level of event you have. He, his wife Angelia are top notch and you will be very pleased.

Awesome pianist

Lenny’s wife Angela played the piano for our annual Christmas party. Everybody was thrilled with her performance. It couldn’t have been any better and hope to have her play again next year.

Fantastic night of music !

Lenny was great. Beautiful music, self sufficient, and very professional. Several ppl took his card and were raving about this idea of having live music at a party. At the end we did a group sing along that was a ton of fun. It was a 60th birthday party and he played all our favorites. Definitely would hire him again.

Excellent Performer

I hired Lenny for a commercial shopping center "Girls Night Out" event and couldn't be more pleased. He played so well prior to seeing him in the room many women could not believe it was live music. Very professional performer, great sound and mix of music. I look forward to working with him in the future and will definitely hire him again. I would highly recommend.

Terrific experience

Lenny played during my proposal to my girlfriend. We were NOT disappointed. Lenny played Marry Me from the band Train and did an awesome job. Very personable and professional. Would not hesitate to hire him again. He had to play in front of a restaurant full of diners and even kept it a surprise right up until he started playing.

About

Lenny is a self-contained one-man band. Playing acoustic guitar & singing songs from Artists such as Jackson Browne, Ray LaMontagne, Fleetwood Mac, Bad Co. The Band and many others. Known mostly for playing bass guitar for many of Cincinnati's finest bands such as the Katie Reider Band, Jag's Off The Hook house band, Jeff Ruby's Kelly Red Band, as well as being the founding member of the very successful Steely Dan tribute band, Pretzel Logic, aka Aja. Lenny is a proven part of the Cincinnati music scene. From Bars to Fine Dining Restaurants, as well as Private Clubs and Weddings. A duo using a Violin/Viola or Piano along with an Acoustic Guitar is available for Weddings such as during Ceremony and or Cocktail Hour. Lenny offers the best of both worlds by playing just Acoustic/Singing or with a Full Band mix using professionally recorded band tracks equal to that of the studio's original recording. A compact professional Bose P.A sound system provides a clean and clear sound no matter how big or small the venue. Lighting may also be provided for those venues which benefit from its use. "Looking forward to meeting, performing & having fun with those in and around Cincinnati," Lenny

Influences and inspiration

I play a bit of everything. I enjoy and listen to most types of music. My Wheelhouse is a Singer-Songwriter type of music in the Classic Rock Era. I wouldn't be the guy you hire if you are looking for rap, nothing against it, I just can't do it.

Setup requirements

Only need about a 8' x 8' area
