November 19, 2024We hired Madison to play at my husband’s black tie 60th birthday dinner at our home. She was perfect. Very professional, played well and has a great voice. She called prior to the party to discuss the playlist. We’d definitely would hire her again.

October 5, 2022Madison has a beautiful voice and unbelievably intricate chops. The repertoire of hers that I heard was very upbeat, uplifting, with real jazz influences and a very unique style all her own!

June 23, 2022Madison played yesterday at my apartment complex for adults age 55+. She was very engaging, an excellent pianist with an angelic voice. Several of my peers stated as I did, that we hope to see her in the future.

Whether you need classical and soothing background music for your 5-star restaurant, or a full show and performance for your holiday work parties, Madison’s training and song catalogue are the perfect fit for your event.
With fun and engaging sing-alongs and beautifully adapted instrumentals, this pianist can breathe life into any event.
Madison Johnson has been playing the piano since she was 10 years old. Inspired by her dream to become a songwriter, Madison learned how to read music from her dad, but soon became too advanced and started taking piano lessons from a professional jazz pianist, Arlette McCoy Budwig.
As a result of those lessons, Madison grew fond of jazz piano; she studied with Arlette for 5 years and then moved on to study at Pasadena City College for 3 years under the direction of David Arnay, who is also professional jazz pianist and instructor at USC. She was part of the jazz band and big band and performed several shows with them while attending PCC. Now, Madison is an oft sought-after piano teacher, a singer/songwriter/pianist, and a member of the band, “Color Me Home” with Rachel Lindley. This history has given Madison the ability to personalize any performance for her clients.
Madison has a Yamaha P-90 keyboard and her own PA system.
