Description

When you book me for your event, I'll go above and beyond to ensure you receive high-quality lounge and cocktail music for your event.
I play on my specially designed electric piano, which features a custom-built piano shell. It is aesthetically pleasing and can be placed almost anywhere.
For the gig:
Please provide: Speakers. Everything else will be taken care of.

Set-List

As a jazz pianist, I improvise with a blend of music from the American Songbook, easy listening music (such as Yiruma), and original compositions.
I have two principles when I play:
1. I play without a set list, as I listen to the audience's vibe and let that dictate what I play next.
2. I never play the same tune twice.

Biography

Since I graduated from the Jazz Conservatory of Stavanger (Norway) in 2006, I have been teaching and playing jazz piano full time. I also run one of the major online jazz piano schools.
Playing and teaching music are the loves of my life.

Meet the Act

I got my first lounge/cocktail jazz piano gig when I was 16. At the time, I had little idea about what I was doing, but I knew I was on the right track. Today, I'm making my full-time income as a musician and music teacher (primarily Online).
I love sharing music and engaging with my audience. One of the things I love most is feeling the energy where I'm playing, knowing that what I'm doing contributes to an enhanced experience for my audience.
I also love to travel, and I'm collecting new memories for each place I visit.
