Response from Pierce Entertainment:
Thanks, Jason! What a wonderful family you have! You and your guests were tons of fun! Thanks again for allowing us the privilege! ~ Keith
Keith does a fantastic job for weddings! I wanted someone with no fluff but could provide mics during the ceremony and the reception plus keep the music going! He mentioned at one point he likes to sing during the dinner. I was totally apprehensive about this - I guess I was thinking it would be like opera singing BUT NO! It was a full on Jam session with liveliness and engagement with the guests! I’ve never been to a wedding like this and Keith definitely was the hit at our wedding. Guests of all ages (14 to 94) LOVED this. It was a nice touch and made our wedding memorable!
Response from Pierce Entertainment:
Thanks, Courtney for such a thoughtful review! Your family and friends were so much fun and so engaging, it was hard not to dance along with them! Thanks for affording us the privilege. Wishing you and Daniel all the best!
Keith exemplified professionalism throughout the planning and execution phase of our daughter's wedding reception. He put us at ease, listened to what we wanted, and utilized his expertise to guide us in a stress free way throughout the reception planning process. He is a remarkable entertainer with great technical and musical knowledge with an amazing ability to "read the room" so that people were on the dance floor throughout the evening. He deserves 10 stars as he was an integral part of our daughter's wedding day!
Response from Pierce Entertainment:
Lisa,
Thanks for much for this amazing review! Thanks especially for including me in your daughter's special day! To say it was wonderful to meet and work with you and your family would be an understatement! I sure appreciated the opportunity!
We have used Keith for years as out family DJ!! He is absolutely amazing at what he does. It was an easy choice to call him to DJ our wedding! All of our guests loved him and had the best time dancing the night away. We were told our DJ was phenomenal, that he slaps, and that he killed it! Keith sings during dinner hour and it is so special to watch him around the room. You will not find a better DJ for any event!
Response from Pierce Entertainment:
Thanks so much for your kind review, Alexis! It was so much fun for me as well and so great to spend such a special time with your family again! Congrats again to you and Justin! :-)
We had a great experience with Pierce Entertainment last night! They DJed our wedding. They were very professional, and lots of fun! They even got out on the dance floor with us. If you have a big event coming up I highly recommend hiring them.
Response from Pierce Entertainment:
Megan - Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a positive review so quickly! I really appreciate it! It was such an honor to be a part of your special day. We really enjoyed your family and friends - they were so much fun -- so friendly and kind! Thanks for allowing us the privilege! Best wishes to you and Brandon on your exciting new journey together!
Keith did an absolutely great job. Singing during dinner to the right mood. And then livened things up after dinner for dancing. Keith made our birthday party a memorable event.
Great job. Would use him again in a heartbeat.
Response from Pierce Entertainment:
Thanks, Mike! I sure appreciate the positive review! What a fun and kind group of family and friends you have! I had as much fun as they did! - K
We had a great time, Pierce Entertainment kept the party going and read the crowd right for my wife's 50th Birthday. I would highly recommend them for your next party
Response from Pierce Entertainment:
Jim - Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a thoughtful 5-star review. I really appreciated it! It was a privilege to share in the fun with your family and friends - they were such a good time! Please let me know what we can do for you in the future!
Keith was very personable and professional for our Surprise Birthday Party! He was able to read the event and the crowd and played great music that kept everyone engaged and on the dance floor! He showed up early and was set up ready to go before we were. Even stayed past our agreed upon time to play the birthday girl's special request! We really enjoyed having Keith at our event and look forward to using him again when the situation arises! I don't doubt that he will exceed your expectations as well.
Response from Pierce Entertainment:
Thanks so much, Thomas! I appreciate the review! Your family and friends were so friendly and fun! I had a blast! So, it was absolutely my pleasure! Thanks again!
Keith was professional and very kind - But when I figured out he could sing all of the Christmas Tunes - I was flabbergasted. A wonderful addition to our employee Christmas party!
Response from Pierce Entertainment:
Kirsten, thank you SO much for your kind review. I believe I had as much fun as your co-workers did! They were SO much fun! I sure appreciate the opportunity and look forward to working with you again! :-)

This was our first experience using Keith for our Group at a very Active Adult Community and he was great!!! He can really read the crowd and patiently answered all my questions throughout the evening!!! He comes with my highest recommendation!
I’ve used Pierce Entertainment Company ~ The Original Singing DJ's, twice – once for a wedding reception and once for a 50th Reunion class party. I have been extremely happy both times. Keith Pierce, and his team of professionals, make recorded music come alive by singing the lead for numerous songs while the original music is being played in the background. Their performance takes using a DJ to an entirely different level, turning recorded music into a concert. They interact with the crowd and are able to sense what music to play to keep people dancing. At our 50th Reunion, 72-year-old's, many of whom didn’t dance in college, were still dancing at the end of the evening. Because they have a library of songs at their fingertips on their iPad, they can play the music your guests want to hear. A band usually has set arrangements where you can only request a few of your special songs; Pierce Entertainment can play any song from any period and bring it alive with their singing. I highly recommend them and will use them again in the future.

Randy –
Thanks for the wonderful review. And thanks for remembering us from your wedding years ago. Both events were a great privilege. People seemed to really enjoy themselves and that's what keeps us doing what we do! We look forward to working with you again! Thank YOU! – Keith
Words can not describe the atmosphere Keith brought to my daughters wedding! He is sweet, professional and adjusts to every moment. When the person to provide music for the ceremony backed out last minute, Keith jumped in on top of providing entertainment for the reception. His voice is soothing and beyond incredible. I received compliments all night on finding such an outstanding PERFORMER who could sing, dance and overall entertain everyone. While my daughter and new husband were having their pictures done, we had served the appetizers and Keith went table to table singing and charming everyone. Keith is first class and the best performer you could hire for any event. I highly recommend him!
Response from Pierce Entertainment:
Thank you so much, Tonya for including me in your daughter's special day! I love it when I can have as much fun as the clients! What a sweet and fun group of family and friends you have - it made it so easy to want to join in on the fun! 😊
We booked Pierce Entertainment for our school's Fall Festival and he was very accomodating! Keith played the music our kids love and kept it appropriate and even threw in some tunes our parents loved too. He was very professional and we will absolutely be making him our go to guy for future school functions. Thank you!
Response from Pierce Entertainment:
Geneva,
Thanks so much for the review and for the opportunity to be a part of your special event! Looking forward to seeing you I’m the future!
Keith
AMAZING SERVICE! Could not have asked for better! Great Pricing and Professionalism! With this being a last minute booking for our company Enchanted Elegance/Heroic Ventures Character Entertainers, I was amazed with the service we received with Pierce Entertainment! With our specialty event, we needed specific children's music. Pierce Entertainment had an amazing, above expectation, set list! Great with communications for the couple of specific requests we had and such a pleasure to work with! Will definitely look to them in the future for our company events and referrals to our clients!
We hired Pierce Entertainment to be our wedding DJ and WOW...they are so incredibly unique, engaging, talented and fantastic!!!!! In addition to playing well chosen music, they sing beautifully and really engage your guests!!! They were the hit of my wedding reception and I know it would not have been the same with any other DJ. We can't thank you enough for the amazing entertainment you provided for our wedding!!!!
I gave my friend Valerie Rose a Homecoming/ fundraiser last night 9/10/16 due to her being in a car accident back in April The theme was a Luau. We felt this would be appropriate considering Valerie loves the Summer season and missed it all why fighting for her life in the hospital so we wanted to end Summer with her and make sure she didn't miss it all! Valerie is a young mother of 2 and she fought so hard for her life for months and is now paralyzed! DJ Keith Pierce came out and played music and sang for us and Valerie was so tickled! This man went above and beyond for us all and especially Valerie. Before the night was over we all felt as though we knew him personally and I'd recommend him to anyone. Thanks Keith for everything u did and we couldn't have did this without u!
Keith,
Tommy and I wanted to say a big THANK YOU to you, Rachel, and Lisa for everything you did on Saturday to make our wedding special! The music for the ceremony and reception was just as I hoped it would be. Thank you for listening to all of our requests and suggestions for wedding during the planning stages and on our wedding day. I also really appreciate you letting our guests entertain as well! I didn't realize how much talent our friends had until our wedding!!! Your flexibility worked so well for us. I really enjoyed your live singing as well as your song selections for the whole night. All in all everything came together so well, we couldn't be happier!
Thank you again for everything! We love you guys!
Laurie and Tommy Necasek :)
Pierce Entertainment did an amazing job at my wedding reception! Everyone loved the combination of DJ and live singing. They are very professional, have amazing voices and know how to get the party going! I don't think the dance floor was ever empty!
Keith,
We would like to thank you for the outstanding performance you pulled off at our wedding! It was truly amazing! We were amazed on how you were able to keep the crowd dancing all night. We can not thank you enough for making this a memorable night for not only our guests, but us as well.
Pierce Entertainment did my sister's wedding, and they were simply unbelievable. Pierce Entertainment provides a unique, delightful, and truly elevated entertainment experience. They provide vocal entertainment, MC (Master of Ceremony) services, and masterful DJ services. They know how to read any crowd and know exactly what to play to keep them moving all night long. They are not content to simply sit behind the table either, they actually get on the floor and dance with the crowd. They are extremely well priced as well. To say they are the best DJs I have ever seen would be a great understatement, and you would be cheated by going with anyone else. For the incredible entertainment experience, for DJs that really know how to do a great party, for the value you will get - YOU will be the toast of your next affair by hiring Pierce Entertainment. I know for me and my family, they are going to do every major event for us for the rest of our lives. So go ahead and do it now, I'll wait...
...You're back. Great. Best event entertainment decision you've ever made. Good on you.
My parents saw Keith at another wedding and recommended him for our wedding; they couldn't stop raving about his talents! We, as well as our family and friends, were absolutely blown away from his singing. We can't thank both Keith and Sheree enough for making our wedding so special with the outstanding entertainment! The most memorable parts of the wedding were when Keith sang the father/daughter and mother/groom dances; we will never forget those special touches!! He made the whole booking process so easy for us from beginning to end. Whenever we had any questions, he would either email or call us back very quickly; we appreciated all of his advice!! Throughout the evening, he communicated with us about the timeline of events and informed us of what to expect!! He truly knew how to read the crowd and decide on the music; everyone was up on the dance floor dancing the night away!! The night was absolutely amazing, and we couldn't have asked for anything more! We would recommend him and his staff for any of our family and friends; Pierce Entertainment was remarkable!! Thank you again for making our wedding so memorable!!
Keith Pierce's crowd-pleasing, energizing style and beautiful voice put smiles on everyone's faces! People have literally danced their way out the door from the Inn at Virginia Tech after listening to his amazing repertoire!
keith did our wedding and everyone had a great time. Not only did he wow the crowd with his vocals during dinner, but he was flexible to last minute changes. We will continue to use keith for future events as our guests deemed him "the best in the biz!"
What a great evening! We got so many compliments on your singing during the dinner! Our guest just loved it! The music that was played was also wonderful and there was something for EVERYONE - young and old! We could not have imagined anything better. Thank you again for a wonderful reception!
Keith Pierce and his Production company went above and beyond what we could have ever expected. They did a phanominal job at running everything, gaging the crowd, and provided what will always be an awesome night to remeber! The wedding singing was an added surprize, thanks Again for a fantastic job.
Keith and Shannon have beautiful voices and everyone loved that we had "actual live singers" at our wedding reception. They made our reception unique and memorable. Keith and Shannon interacted with our guests very well. They rocked the "stage." Thank you, Pierce Entertainment!
Keith and Rachel helped make my daughter's wedding special. Their performance of the songs she had selected for her ceremony was flawless. I appreciated their smiles and they made me feel they were glad to be a part of our celebration!!! Thanks to Keith and Rachel....you are the best.
Response from Pierce Entertainment:
Thanks Linda - what a pleasure it was for both of us. It was a beautiful ceremony for a wonderful group of people! I hope it's OK that we share your comments on our website as well as on FB. Thanks again for calling on us! -Keith
I would not host an event without hiring Pierce Entertainment.We first heard them at a family wedding and over the years have booked them for our 3 daughter's wedding receptions. They are fantastic, so much more than a DJ. Once you hear them, you will certainly agree.

A typical event begins with smooth and elegant cocktail music from your choice of live piano or just the right choice of recorded music. Your dinner entertainment features high-class light and live vocal renditions of the most memorable tunes of all time. From classic oldies to contemporary pop, jazz, light rock and more, the Pierce voices will take you on a magical trip from the 1940s and 50s to the current year in less than 2 hours. But don't close your eyes, you may just think it really is Eric Clapton, Elton John, Michael Buble, Stevie Wonder, Louis Armstrong, Billy Joel, the Platters, Neil Diamond, Elvis, Frank Sinatra, Celine Dion, Nora Jones, Barry White, Shania Twain, or so many more great singers right there at your table.
The magic continues after dinner as the dance floor opens with excitement and style! No blow-up saxophones or loud, obnoxious games, just pure musical entertainment. Variety is the keyword as Pierce carefully reads your audience to make just the right music selections to get your guests up and moving from beginning to end. Experienced with a wide variety of events, Pierce entertainers are masters at reading any crowd. No matter what generation, ethnicity or combination, Pierce gracefully combines Dance Music, Pop, Hip-Hop, R&B, Country, Big Band, Jazz, Classic Rock, Oldies, Light Rock, Latin, Reggae, and more so that no guest is left behind. Absolutely the best combination of music you will ever hear! And thanks to their use of today's latest streaming technology – they can play ANY request!

The idea for Pierce Entertainment was born out of a sheer love for music. In 1988, when a good friend was stuck and needed music for a wedding, Kevin Pierce, having a vast music collection, jumped in as a favor. Just for kicks, he threw on a little karaoke music and with smooth subtlety, crooned his way through the dinner hour. The response was overwhelming and the rest is history.
One job led to another and before he knew it, Kevin had a new business. When Keith relocated back home to Pennsylvania two years later, he joined Kevin and by 1991, just three years after Kevin's first wedding, the duo was performing over 50 engagements per year. When the calls kept pouring in, the twins decided it was time to split the act and add additional singers to accommodate the demand. Female voices added just the right finishing touch to their creative form of event entertainment and business soared.
By 1995 the number of engagements doubled to an average of 100 per year. Today, the Pierce Entertainment team consists of several talented and professional male and female performers and DJs who have never disappointed a single audience!
Lighting is limited, though available as needed. Sound is a high-quality JBL or EV speaker system with cordless mics. Everything is tailored to the event, venue and desire of the client.
