October 28, 2026Enchanting Wedding Pianist
We worked with Tia for our wedding ceremony and she was phenomenal! A true professional musician - her piano playing was flawless. She was also a pleasure to work/coordinate with - punctual, timely, etc. For an event with many stressors, Tia was a breath of stress-free air. Overall perfect experience!

August 3, 2025Tia is amazing
I booked Tia for my mom’s 60th birthday celebration, and she was amazing from start to finish. Extremely professional and a joy to have—she truly elevated the entire experience. Tia even learned a couple of my mom’s favorite songs on short notice, and they sounded incredible. I would recommend her to anyone. If I have another party, I know exactly who I’m calling. 1,000/10!
