February 24, 2025Fantastic Fun Entertainment
Janessa is such a fantastic entertainer. I found her online after seeing her play at a local venue and was blown away by her energy and talent! I had her play at my 50th birthday party and it was a huge hit! She kept all the guests entertained and dancing (even the kids) Highly recommend !!

February 23, 2025Fabulous entertainment and so easy to work with!
Janessa and Tricia were the hit of my son’s bar mitzvah! We wanted to provide entertainment at our party that was multigenerational and interactive and they were the perfect fit! They got all ages (from infant to 80) up singing and dancing! Everyone absolutely loved them! Not only were they incredibly talented and engaging to all our guests but they were super professional and easy to work with. Janessa was very responsive to any and all questions and made everything feel so seamless at the event. I highly recommend!

January 29, 2025Wow - Blown away every time
Janessa is so amazingly talented! I've seen her perform numerous times, even followed her out of state to see her play. I can't get enough! If there's ever a Janessa fan club, I'm putting my hat in the ring for President. Seriously, hire her, go see her perform! You will not be disappointed. 11/10 Highly Recommend!

January 28, 2025Wow! Amazing talent!
Janessa is an absolute powerhouse! She has one of the best voices I’ve ever heard, and her talent is matched only by her energy and charisma. Her song repertoire is massive—she’s like a living, breathing jukebox, and she brings it every time every time. I’d go to any show she’s part of in a heaetbeat. If I could give her six stars, I would!

What to expect
If you want your party guests to have an unforgettable time, look no farther! Not only is Janessa a talented singer and pianist, she is engaging, friendly, and (usually) funny. She'll take care of everything from getting the guests involved in the performance to making sure speeches and toasts are heard loud and clear. Your guests will dance, sing, and laugh all night long!
About
A classically-trained vocalist and former opera singer, Janessa found her niche as a dueling pianist in 2018. She's quick to befriend every guest in the room, working hard to make sure they enjoy every moment. She can belt some Gaga or P!nk with the best of 'em, and plays nearly everything from the 70s to today's top hits.
Additional booking notes
Janessa will provide her own audio gear for a small-medium performance space (think bar or event space - not a concert hall or arena). She will bring a keyboard, mixer, speaker, and multiple microphones. If you request a live drummer, a full drum set will also come along. She just needs enough space and a few electrical outlets!
