I asked Michael to help me with a situation that was fraught with potential mistakes. I wanted to take my fiance to a restaurant we love and have some history with and surprise her by singing he one of our songs 'Never My Love' and then propose to her. Michael was just great from the beginning to the end of this adventure. He helped me practice and we worked through getting the right key to do the song in and the whole fun subterfuge of the surprise. It went off without a hitch. My bride-to-be was totally touched by the experience. (She said yes!) I can't thank Michael enough. It was a fantastic way to pop the question and he was instrumental in making it happen.

Now, THIS is what makes it all worthwhile for me as a performer! I was honored to participate in such a life-changing experience for my client and his beautiful fiancee, who radiated happiness from every pore! It was a beautiful evening at a lovely venue (their bouillabaisse was awesome!) and it gave me much joy to witness the launching of a lifetime of love!

Michael played at my wedding and he did an amazing job. So many people came up to me and complimented him. He was very professional. I couldn’t be happier with the music. I would recommend Michael for any event.

We hired Michael for one of our parties a few years ago, and asked him to return for our summer soiree, which we held outdoors on our property. Like last time, Michael showed up early, beautifully attired, and we caught up while he was setting up his keyboard and doing sound checks. Always upbeat and cheerful, Michael set the tone for our party, played lots of hits we all enjoyed, and was the total pro we happily remembered. If anything, he has improved through the years, and our guests had a great time! Bravo to Michael, AND The Bash!

Michael has performed for us at our annual Black and White party for five years in a row and he has never failed to delight our guests. He is nice, punctual, easy to work with, professional and very talented. He does great job of helping set the tone of our party. I highly and without reservation recommend Michael.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on August 10, 2019•From Atherton, CA

There are no words comprehensive enough to describe Michael's personable and professional comportment on the keys at her birthday party. He was a huge asset contributing to the success of the party. The guests were very pleased with his playing and he deserves far more than the usual plaudits for his contribution to the event.

This is the second time Michael has played at a party for our family and friends. He is an amazing pianist, and my guests are entertained throughout the event. Once you have him perform, you will not want to have a party without Michael's beautiful piano music playing in the background and his great ability to include the guests in his performance. Truly the BEST!!!

Holiday Party•Reviewed on December 15, 2018•From San Rafael, CA

Michael was very pleasant to work with from the first conversation to the end of the evening. We had an open house with over 80 people in attendance. Everyone enjoyed listening to him. He played a wide variety of music that was the perfect background for our party. He is a very kind and engaging person. I would highly recommend him and would use him again. Many people asked how we had found him and commented on his excellent skills.

Part of Michael's talent comes from experience, because he was able to adjust right along with our event in and out of the spotlight so to speak, elevating the live experience! Bravo

Michael was professional, responsive, and exceptionally talented. He was very willing to "go with the flow" of the party and accommodate our last-minute request to stay a bit later than originally planned. Very glad we hired him!

This was our third year in a row hiring Michael for our Christmas party. His playing adds so much to the atmosphere and really makes the event feel special.

Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on May 13, 2016•From Oakland, CA

Michael provided the perfect "backdrop" for our son's rehearsal dinner. I can't say enough about his skill at playing... Very impressive...but most importantly he stayed in touch prior to the event to make sure we were comfortable with the schedule and that everything went smoothly.. Without a doubt I would hire him again! Thanks, Michael!

Christmas Party•Reviewed on December 25, 2015•From Sonoma, CA

Three days before Christmas, our Christmas dinner went from 8 to about 30 people. I signed onto GigMasters with no expectation of finding a pianist available very last minute. I read about Michael, clicked on his name and Poof! I received a very timely response. Easy going, witty, fun and great with children too!! So lucky he was available, and he played a wonderful repertoire of music for our family and friends. Thank you Michael - you made our holiday dinner party a Christmas to remember.
