Photo of Ivory Vows Ivory Vows "Fabulous wedding pianist! Ivory Vows played for our wedding ceremony in August and really made the day. Great communication and choice of songs and very professional throughout the ceremony. We would recommend to anyone for their big day!" Based in Chatham, Ontario, Canada (44 miles from Detroit) Katie Scales - Private Wedding Photo of Scott Taylor Scott Taylor "I’ve had the pleasure of working with Scott on multiple occasions, most recently for two student voice recitals featuring singers of various ages and skill levels. His sensitivity to phrasing, breath marks, and fermatas demonstrates a deep understanding of vocal nuance, and he consistently supports singers with both musicality and grace. Scott arrives prepared, presents himself with professionalism, and adapts seamlessly to the needs of each performer. Whether accompanying classical repertoire or lighter selections, he elevates every performance with refined technique and collaborative instinct. I would hire Scott again and again—he is a consummate artist and a trusted musical partner." Based in Alma, Michigan (109 miles from Detroit) 20th March 2026 Aziza Poggi Photo of Sam Keily Sam Keily "Blown away! Sam was able to recreate my dream from two tik toks I sent him. He played Star Wars for all of our groomsmen and Abba for all of our bridal party!! Everyone complimented the music and Sam seriously listened to all of our requests and was amazing. I would absolutely book him again!" Based in Fort Wayne, Indiana (136 miles from Detroit) 1st March 2026 Chloe T. - Private Wedding Photo of Vic Barreira Vic Barreira "When we talk about musical talent, and skilled soulful vocals, Vic Barreira is first on the list. Whether he's performing with a guitar or keyboard, Vic is the "real deal". His renditions of Neil Diamond, Elton John, Billy Joel, and the Beatles, as well as his own material is testament to not only his professionalism but for his love of music. Catch Vic live at your next venue and get ready to be blown away!" Based in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada (174 miles from Detroit) Mystic Highway Band (CCR/John Fogerty Tribute) Photo of Paul Cohen Piano Paul Cohen Piano "Paul was great! He was accommodating when we asked him to play a custom song for our wedding ceremony and his personal jazz music was perfect for our cocktail hour. He was quick to respond to our emails and was the most professional vendor we worked with, we highly recommend him!." Based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (205 miles from Detroit) Tom C. Photo of Just Us Jazz Band Just Us Jazz Band "Excellent, reliable, and high quality music! John was an absolute delight to work with."

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring pianists is $340, with prices from $100 to $900+. Pricing depends on the pianist's experience, set length and whether a venue piano is available or a digital instrument needs to be supplied. Pianists are a popular choice for background music during dinners, receptions and ceremonies.

The pianists for hire cover a wide range of styles including classical, jazz, pop, rock, blues, gospel, boogie-woogie and show tunes. Many pianists are versatile performers who can switch between styles during an event to suit different moments.

Hiring pianists is ideal for wedding ceremonies, drinks receptions, corporate dinners, hotel lobbies, private parties and formal occasions. Piano music is one of the most versatile and widely appreciated forms of live entertainment.

Many pianists bring a high-quality digital piano or keyboard, while others may prefer to use an acoustic piano if one is available at the venue. A digital piano is easily transported and can be set up in most locations. Gig Heaven recommends confirming instrument arrangements when making an enquiry.

Many pianists are singer-pianists who can provide a full vocal and piano performance. This offers a wider repertoire and a more dynamic show than instrumental piano alone. It is worth checking each performer's profile for details of their performance format.
