Kristin put on an amazing concert for our residents and their families. We hired her to provide music for our "That's Amore" themed event and her song selection was perfect. We would definitely hire Kristin again.

Thank you, thank you! So much fun working with you, Elisabeth!
We hired Kristin to play at my parents' 49th wedding anniversary party and it was amazing!!! She did a wonderful job of playing so many of their favorite songs. We really appreciated her fast communication and willingness to play whatever we asked. Everyone loved the music and it was a perfect fit with our venue (the Kirkland Woman's Club - a 100+ year old building!) We will definitely hire Kirstin again!!!

What a fun surprise, and I’m so happy I got to be a part of it! Thanks so much and looking forward to future endeavors together.
Kristin perfomed for my elderly mother's birthday party at an assisted living residence. The residents and staff all enjoyed her performance of 1940s and 1950s era songs. She made my mother -- and everyone -- very happy!

Thank you so much, Lourene! It was a joy going into such a wonderful community where residents are so lovingly cared for.
Kristin played for our Annual Holiday party of 40 people. She truly turned an 'average' party into a memorable one. She was super easy to work with ahead of time, is super talented, played a wonderful variety of songs to perfection, was absolutely warm and friendly with all the guests, played far longer than originally planned, only took short breaks and most FUN of all, led the group in Christmas caroling. I can't say enough good things about Kristin. We are incredibly grateful that she made our evening so special.

Thank you, Nissa! I appreciated your thorough communication and how you provided me with everything I needed well before the service. I look forward to collaborating in the future!
Kristin provided music for our non profit dinner event. I requested mellow for the beginning as guests arrived, then more upbeat throughout the meal, then worship songs for after. She chose songs that matched the venue perfectly, played expertly, has a beautiful voice. If I am looking for someone for another event I would definitely hire her again. Thanks Kristin!!

Thank you, Katie! What a fun event! I’m already looking forward to next year’s party.
Kristin was very nice to work with. She did a great job coming down for an event she was not familiar with and arrived prepared with holiday music to play in the entrance to the Tacoma Dome. Her playing helped attendees get in the holiday spirit on their way to the show. Thank you, Kristin!

What to Expect
Being a pianist/singing pianist is my full-time career. I am an organized and punctual, professional pianist and vocalist who specializes in standards/jazz, decade hits (30s, 40s, 50s, 60s and 70s), Broadway tunes, classical and movie themes. I enjoy playing in the background for cocktail parties or holiday events or being more front and center, having dialogue with the audience. I've been compared to Judy Garland and told I'm a lot of fun!
About
I am a classically trained pianist and vocalist and have a combined 30+ years of experience in piano and vocal performance. I've been teaching private piano and voice lessons full-time since 2015.
My area of study was Music Education and Vocal Performance at Iowa State University, and I had the distinct privilege of studying opera with operatic success Simon Estes. After college, I was hand selected to sing in a choral collection directed by Almeda Berkey at Carnegie Hall in New York City. My favorite styles to perform include jazz, showtunes pop, rock, and folk.
I rotate performances in over 50 venues in Seattle. Pre-COVID, I was teaching group classes for children in assisted living facilities. Becoming more aware of our interactions with other generations can help us become more connected with the present, past and future. This brings us a perspective that can help communities thrive as time goes on.
Additional Booking Notes
I request a dry, draft-free area so that the music doesn't get wet or blow.
A microphone is not necessary for piano performances unless I will be singing or speaking.
