I am a pianist with 20+ years of experience in jazz, classical, standards, and rock piano. I have played in several local bands, provided service music for local churches, played countless weddings and receptions, and was the pianist for the 5-Star, 5-Diamond resort, The Woodlands. I can provide beautiful piano music for a variety of events, including weddings, receptions, parties, and more. In addition to playing, I also specialize in parties, bringing a “piano man” type atmosphere to your party, complete with singalongs and requests! Don’t have a piano in your home or venue? I can provide all of my own equipment!
He adds so much magic to our holiday party! Guests absolutely LOVE it and the music really gets everyone in the holiday spirit. He also takes requests and it’s amazing how he can play anything!!
John did a great job and helped make our party better.
On time! Very nice, and exactly what we were hoping for. Couldn’t have asked for a better time!
Response from John Daniel:
Thanks for having us! It was a great group of people, and every work party should be that much fun!
We are so grateful to have booked John for our wedding day in Charleston. He went out of his way to learn a difficult song we had requested for the ceremony and took special requests by our guests during the cocktail hour. Our guests were absolutely delighted by his piano playing and kindness, and we couldn’t be happier with how the day went. Good luck to all the grooms who think they won’t get emotional if John is on the piano. He made our special day even more special!
John was so much fun to have and in addition to taking a lot of requests and singing along with a very animated bunch he also was fun to hang out with. He also entertained my children during the party with Disney songs. Thanks John! Thank
What a special edition to our birthday party - so glad we found John Daniel! He is easy-going and the guests all enjoyed him and especially his taking their requests in addition to playing the music I had asked. He also sang which was a pleasant surprise.
John came right in to a group of 40+ year old women and made it a great time for all!
Kind and professional to work with. Wonderful music provided for our wedding day!
We had a very fancy Christmas Party. He showed up early and played wonderful. I would definitely use him again.

John Daniel did an awesome job playing at our holiday party. He knows tons of songs, has a great voice, is a beautiful piano player, and an all around very nice guy. He is also great with little ones who want to join in and play long side him. It was an absolute joy to have him at our party and we’re already looking forward to next year. We had never hired anyone to play music at our party now we cannot imagine not doing it.
John was super. He was very friendly, arrived early and played beautifully. We had a lot of fun and thanks to him for a great party. Will definitely book him again. Thanks
Response from John Daniel:
Jane, thank you so much for your kind review! I would love to play for you again any time.
Very friendly, professional, and flexible, however, it didn't seem like he was very well prepared on the musical side of things. He seemed to be glued to his music and made a few obvious mistakes; it seemed like he was looking at some of the music for the first time, however, this may have been due in part to his unfamiliarity with plain chant/the Catholic Mass.
Price Range: $150-$600
You can expect complete professionalism, from the booking stage to the planning stage to the actual event. I am eager and willing to learn any special songs that you may desire for your event, as well. I can provide my own keyboard and amps, or I can play a piano that you provide. In addition, I also sing and can provide a “piano man” type atmosphere for your party, complete with singalongs and requests!
