Scott's background piano music during a family celebration helped transform our evening into a real party. He is so easy to work with, we had an initial conversation about what we had in mind about a month prior and then he reconfirmed a few days before. He played a variety of popular songs and mixed it up with a little jazz. Everyone loved it!!
Scott was a pleasure and a wonderful addition to our holiday party, with little guidance from us he played an array of music - classical, holiday, and cover songs which has some of our guests singing along. Highly recommend him for your next event!
Scott came and played at our ladies Christmas party as ambiance music. Everyone loved having the piano player. My piano never sounded so good! He came, he played, he was polite and professional. It added a nice touch to our annual party! We look forward to our next occasion to have Scott entertain us!
Scott was gracious enough to perform for us in our home for my sons rehearsal dinner. He was not only amazing on the piano but mixed beautifully with our guest. Scott was an absolute pleasure and we would recommend him highly! His professionalism and repertoire were outstanding! Thank you Scott for making our night so special!
Scott played a good mix, ranging from show tunes for 80 year old Aunt Ellie, to singing current day pop classics. I highly recommend him!
Scott Grossman was a very nice and friendly person who mixed well with our party guests. He was a very talented pianist who entertained us and accompanied our holiday sing along!
My non-profit group wanted to add some music to the holiday meetiing/party we had planned.
Scott offered his services and was able to work well with our schedule for the event. He was responsive to messages sent on this site, arrived on time and brought his own equipment. Our members enjoyed his music. We would hire him again.
Scott arrived early to set up and played beautifully through our company winter celebration. We were happy to have him and look forward to hopefully working again in the future. Thanks, Scott!
Scott was a professional from start to finish. We collaborated across the miles to prepare for the concert I was singing at and his communications were timely and thorough. He accompanied me on piano and played so beautifully with skill and heart! It was an absolute pleasure to meet him and to perform with him. I highly recommend him for any event where you need a fine musician!!! Thank you, Scott! Best wishes, Nora B.
I hired Scott to play background music at the adult dinner reception for my son's Bar Mitzvah while a DJ entertained kids in another room entirely. He played a mix of songs that were of interest to me (we had discussed in advance the kind of music I wanted) ranging from show tunes to jazz, popular, and old classics. He hit the mark and it helped add to the lovely ambience of the evening. In addition, while I was running around most of the evening, he arrived and started playing without my knowing until I entered the dinner room. I will definitely enlist Scott's musical talents for any future event I host.

Wide musical tastes and range. Can play my own set list or work with you on creating a set list specific to your occasion. Flexible, easy to work with.
Experienced piano player who has performed as a soloist, part of a duo and band member for many years - over 100 performances at various events and venues. Our band, The Glue Factory plays a wide range of musical styles primarily under the heading of Americana - including Rock, Pop, Blues, Jazz and Country. I am also interested and have experience in Ragtime piano and Classical music.
Music and the piano have been a big part of my life and I enjoy sharing it with others.
Have my own equipment if needed - Yamaha CP33 Stage Piano, Center Point Stereo Amplifier or M-Audio Studio Monitors. Just a little space to set up and a power source is all I need.
