Jazz & Classical Piano For Any Occasion

Tough hitting the right balance between serious jazz and music for a birthday dinner for 80 people, but he did it. I wanted to be sure to avoid a bill Murray-type lounge pianist while still playing appropriate jazz and popular standards. This was perfect. He’s a serious jazz pro but knows what he’s doing for any gathering. Couldn’t be happier!

I hired Loran to play piano at my wife's baby shower. I asked that he play soft jazz/classical music similar to Bill Evans (who my wife loves) and he knew exactly what i was looking for. Loran checked in prior to the event to ensure he was dressed suitably (he looked great) and we kept in contact to iron out any minor concerns leading up to the event. He was respectful, friendly and gracious and I had no worries leaving him to do his thing whilst everyone soaked up the ambience and enjoyed the party. I will, without hesitation hire Loran for any future events that require music.

We're thankful that Loran arrived to our event about 15 minutes before it got underway. We went over the music selection we had previously discussed he would play, and he started playing music almost right away. Every song Loran played was flawlessly delivered! So much so that the crowd at my son's birthday party was impressed with his repertoire and his charisma. He went from classical to contemporary just as we asked him to do, and some of our younger guests unexpectedly started to dance! We truly enjoyed all the music he played. In addition to being a phenomenal piano man, Laran is also well-mannered, high respectful, and friendly man. We highly recommend him for your event.

We hired Loran for my fathers outdoor memorial service and have no regrets. His superior musicianship, extensive training in both classical and jazz, ability to improvise and weave pieces of contrasting music together and fit the music and style to the parts of the service and reception was stellar. Our particular event was small, intimate, outdoor, generally secular, but with woven hymns from my fathers childhood throughout. Loran created exactly the right feel to properly honor my father.
