About

As far back as I can remember, I have always enjoyed being in front of the piano trying to make it sing. I was inspired to do so by the talent of my mother and older brother. After giving my family members one too many headaches when I was much younger, I was given the opportunity to take piano lessons in order to refine my technique. Through the course of the years, I developed an eclectic approach to my music. My attitude has been if I enjoy playing it, I will play it regardless of the genre. I would like to think the result has been a wide scope of music that appeals to a broader audience. I look forward to performing at your functions. Thank-you in advance for the opportunity. What I enjoy about my work is the opportunity it gives me to do something that I appreciate doing, as well as learning songs that I would otherwise not have heard or played.

I can’t say enough about Andrew. From the moment we inquired to hire him he walked us through the entire process for our wedding right down to what he would be wearing to fit our aesthetic. He even learned a brand new song he had never heard before for our precessional music. He checked in with us a few days before the wedding to go over final decisions and he showed up on time to setup and be ready to play for our ceremony. At a very reasonable price, I would say for what he delivers he actually could charge more! Thank you for making our special day even more memorable Andrew!

Details: Wedding ceremony • 101 - 150 guests • 12 years old or younger • 13 - 17 years old • 18 - 30 years old • 31 - 50 years old • 51 or older • Piano • Covers • Outdoors

Andrew and his music was a wonderful addition to the surprise party we hosted for my mother-in-law’s birthday. Prior to the event, he was very response to any questions we might have had and was thorough with understanding our expectations of the event. He arrived promptly to set up and dressed appropriately. He is kind, thoughtful and a pleasure to deal with! Andrew played beautifully and the music was enjoyed by all. A truly memorable party! Thank you again Andrew for making it a extra special day with fond memories which will be remembered for a long time!

Andy was incredible! From the second I talked to him on the phone to coordinate our details, to the very end of our rehearsal dinner, he was beyond professional, accommodating, and very good at what he does! He played for 3 hours at our rehearsal dinner, an array of music of genres. We loved every moment! He brought a beautiful feel to our rehearsal and every one complemented how wonderful, kind and professional he was! I would hire him over and over again for more moments in our life! It was perfect!
