February 24, 2020Great times!
Scott was awesome! He’s a true professional. I’d hire him for any event. Our group pitched sing along songs at him, some obscure, and he was able to play them with ease.

July 5, 2025A Night to Remember
We hired Scott for our wedding reception and what a fantastic night we had! He played background music during dinner and kicked it up when we were done. He even sang and played a first dance song for us. From start to finish we had a blast. Scott is highly talented and I would not hesitate in booking him again. Thanks for the great evening, Scott!!

What to expect
One of Scott's greatest strengths is his versatility.
He's played small Christmas parties with 15-20 people and had everyone singing along with Christmas songs and regular pop songs as well as he played on an upright piano in the corner of their living room.
Scott has played up in Canada to a crowd of 1000 people in a spotlit high energy dueling piano show for a ticketed benefit.
He's played keyboard as the lead singer with his trio at different casinos like the Mirage and Aliente for medium size groups of 50 to 100 people.
Point being that Scott can perform in any setting, as a soloist, duo, trio, dueling piano show, or as a 4 piece band, and he can also perform many varieties of music, whether instrumental or with vocals, from Oldies to Country to Jazz to Modern music and more.
It just depends on the customers' needs. Scott also has all the equipment needed for small intimate settings, or for much larger settings as well.
About
Scott Nicholson is a pianist/vocalist/entertainer who has been performing full time in Las Vegas, NV, for the last 21 years. He started playing piano at the age of 5. He attended Berklee College of Music for two years, then transferred to the Hartt School of Music at the University of Hartford and graduated in 1995.
He was trained classically, but once Scott got into his high school years, he interests in all musical genres flourished. In college he studied jazz music as well as continuing in classical, and he started playing live on a regular basis in college, performing all types of music including rock and country.
Scott is originally from New England, but over the years he has lived in many places across the U.S.
He spent a few years living and performing in New York City regularly. In 2004, Scott found himself in Las Vegas, performing in all the different Dueling Piano Bars 4 or 5 nights a week, and as time went on, he began booking himself for private and corporate events of all shapes and sizes.
Currently Scott performs in Vegas as a solo pianist, as a lead singer in his trio, and as a dueling piano player.
