About / Biography

Hello, I'm Marini Kelley, and I am a pianist and violinist in Marietta, GA. I am a classically trained musician who also loves creating piano and violin covers of worship songs and other popular music.

I've been playing piano for 12 years, and violin for 9 years, honing my craft in classical, worship, R&B, and pop music. From reading sheet music to improvising on the spot, I can adapt to any musical situation with ease. I am spreading joy and harmony at churches, weddings, parties, and concerts alike.

If you need a peaceful, ambient atmosphere for your event, I can serenade your guests with some beautiful classical music and/or piano or violin covers of worship music and other popular songs. Do you need someone to fill in for your worship service? I’ve got you covered. If you are planning a lively celebration, I'll get the party started with some pop music that will have everyone dancing in no time.

So, if you're looking to add spectacular music to your special occasion, look no further! Let's make some unforgettable memories together!

Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

There must be a piano already at the venue if I’m being hired as a pianist.


What information do you require about a venue?

I need to know the exact address of the venue, where can I park, how big the room is, and what equipment will already be provided for me.


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

I can only provide a speaker and a mic if necessary. I can’t provide lighting.


Can you provide a Spotify/DJ service before and between your sets?

Yes absolutely.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever worked at?

The best gig I’ve ever done was at Resurrection Anglican Church in Woodstock, GA on March 22, 2026. I was able to play my own violin arrangement of Now and At The Hour along to a backing track that I created myself. Everybody loved my creativity, and it was very meaningful to them.


What's your favourite type of event?

Out of all the gigs I’ve had, I generally love church gigs the most. I love playing piano and violin as an act of worship to God, and love hearing people sing along as I play.


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

I started gigging after volunteering to play piano at Liberty Church in Marietta, GA for 2 years. The bass player of that church actually gave me my first gigs in 2024, where I was playing piano at different churches and at worship concerts. A year later, my violin and piano teacher encouraged me to start playing for weddings and Christmas parties as well, and I did my first wedding gig and Christmas party gig in 2025. I’ve been continuing to do weddings, parties, and church services ever since.


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

I don’t have a favorite artist. I love Contemporary Christian music, Gospel music, hymns, classical music, and a touch of R&B.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

I like to arrive an hour before an event to set up. And my performance times range from 30 minutes to 5 hours, depending on the event. The only 5 hour performances I’ve done are at Liberty Church’s summer camps, where worship goes on for a very long period of time. For parties, I like to break every half an hour for 10 to 15 minutes.


Are you happy to perform outside?

Yes, I can perform outside. I’m allergic to fire ants, so the place where I’ll perform must be away from any fire ants mounds.
And if I’m going to be playing for at least an hour and have to bring a speaker or mic, I need to have an outlet close by to charge them.


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

Yes, my clients always have a say in what I play as long as it doesn’t have the following things: cussing, drinking alcohol, dangerous drugs, drug overdose, smoking, vaping, revenge, violence, sexual promiscuity, homosexuality, sex outside of marriage (including but not limited to cohabitation and friends with benefits), Satanism, or worshipping any other god or human being other than Jesus Christ or the God of the Bible.

This isn’t me enforcing my values on anybody. This helps me walk out my values as a Christian.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

My clients describe me as creative, adaptable, and communicative. They say that the music that I play brings meaning, emotional moments, and in church services in particular, helps people connect with God.
