Welcome to the lively and vibrant world of Michael Stringer, Houston's Premier Piano Man! We are thrilled that you've stumbled upon my profile and can't wait to bring an unforgettable musical experience to your event. But first, let me share a little bit about myself and the wide range of genres I thrive in. Music has been my passion for as long as I can remember. With over five decades of playing and learning under my belt, I bring a wealth of experience and expertise to the table. From classical piano and voice to blues, country, and rock and roll, my repertoire knows no bounds. Whether it's a concert, recital, private event, or any other setting you can imagine, I have performed in them all and have honed my craft with unmatched dedication. 'Tis the season to make merry and fill the air with joyous melodies! If you're on the hunt for a pianist for your upcoming Christmas or Holiday event look, you've struck gold. I absolutely adore the music of this magical time. Over the years, I have mastered thousands of Christmas pieces, playing some with a classical touch while adding a generous sprinkle of good ole' fun! Picture yourself surrounded by loved ones, gathered around the piano, belting out your favorite festive tunes. Take a peek at my repertoire on this site and let the possibilities unfold before your eyes. Allow me to recount an unforgettable event that I recently had the pleasure of being part of. We threw a surprise 80th birthday party for a remarkable piano teacher named Francis. Her children and all her present and former piano students collaborated to create the grandest celebration she had ever laid eyes on. The twist? Her son roped me into the planning by scheduling a "beginner's" piano lesson for me with Francis. Little did she know that I had been playing for decades! On the big day, as she entered the room filled with her loved ones, I dazzled her by playing Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata" instead of the simple nursery rhyme I was supposed to learn. The look of pure astonishment and joy on her face is a memory that will forever warm my heart. But that's not all! From Valentine's Day parties to private events, weddings to funerals, retirement community celebrations to surprise marriage proposals, I have a rich tapestry of experience in every event you can imagine. I've graced the stages of some of Houston's most esteemed 5-star hotels, including the JW Marriott, The Post Oak Hotel, and Shearn's Seafood and Prime Steaks in the Moody Gardens Hotel. And let's not forget the countless gigs at delightful venues such as The Post Oak Grill, The County Line Bar and Grill, Shakespeare's Blues Pub, and Tipsy Turtle in Galveston. In fact, I was even hired by none other than Mattress Mack from Gallery Furniture as his first in-house pianist in 2013! So, what kind of event are you envisioning? Whether it's a romantic wedding, a joyous birthday party, or a festive holiday gathering, look no further than Houston's own Michael Stringer. In a city teeming with talent, I stand out for my unwavering passion and dedication. Each performance is a testament to my unwavering commitment to practice, rehearse, and prepare extensively for every event. Don't just take my word for it, delve into the glowing reviews from satisfied clients who have witnessed the magic firsthand! While you're at it, venture over to my Facebook, Instagram, and Tik-Tok, "Michael Stringer Music," and check out a few of my shining moments. The holiday season is upon us, and my calendar is filling up quickly, so there's no better time than now to secure the services of Houston's Premier Piano Man for your special occasion. I eagerly await the opportunity to make your event extraordinary! Thank you from the bottom of my art-filled heart, Michael

Wedding ReceptionReviewed on September 14, 2024From Spring, TX

A NIGHTMARE WEDDING! Michael Stringer showed up with excuses about his phone and tablet. Never got his act together. Had to be reminded to make the announcements. Tons of moments of silence while he thumbed through music books. Kept playing a weird mix of a few bars of what sounded like a saloon jingle, mixed with a few bars of Mozart, mixed with Bennie and the Jets over and over and over again. I had to tell him to stop! A simple job with just a few song requests. In 3 hours he DESTROYED all the love, time, and effort we put into this day. He kept missing keys, everyone there kept cringing!! The bride is still crying. He admitted failure and I was not reimbursed!

Private PartyReviewed on October 7, 2019From Galveston, TX

We had a private dinner party for 40 people. Michael was great he was able to read the room and play just what everyone wanted and he also played music to fit the cocktail hour and then dinner. After dinner some of us joined him and played and sang. Great evening. I highly recommend Michael.

Michael Stringer:

To William and All Your Friends... What a party! Picking the San Luis in Galveston for your event with me on a grand piano was a blast! I had fun. Heck we all had fun! A party that was scheduled to end at 7:30 lasted into the evening. I especially loved you guys gathering around the piano and singing some fun songs from Jimmy Buffet and other artists. Thank you for booking me. I look forward to playing for more events in the future. If any of you guys or ladies want a Christmas party with a singing piano player, I’m your man. My Christmas music is ready for the holiday season. Again, thanks!

Corporate FunctionReviewed on September 23, 2019From Houston, TX

Michael was a fantastic addition to our industry gala. He was professional, attentive, and FUN! He dressed the part and our guests loved his enthusiasm for the event. We look forward to working with Michael again in the future.

Michael Stringer:

Thank You Alyssa! It was a pleasure to play for the annual IIDA Gala and Excellence Awards Banquet. Every time a client books me to play and/or sing, I take the time to make a custom playlist of songs that fit well for the occasion. Again, I appreciate you having the confidence in my talent to help make your occasion a memorable one. I look forward to playing for future events! Michael 832-948-8967
