Russ was amazing!

Russ accepted a (lengthy) list of song requests and played every single one. Our event was running around 30 minutes behind and he stayed later to play for the entire dinner without hesitation. He was everyone’s favorite part of the evening by far. Thankful for his amazing service!

What to expect

Very versitile music ranging from active request taking to smooth jazzy background music. I can play your favorite songs from the radio in a soothing classical way. My playing will certainly add just the right tone to your party, a tone that you can set by making a playlist or selecting a style or mood you'd like me to play with. I require few breaks or amenities, just a piano and people to listen. Whatever you're expecting of me, expect more.
