Wedding Reception•Reviewed on September 14, 2024•From 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 Party•Reviewed on October 7, 2019•From 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.

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!

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 was very easy to work with. He came over the week before our event to make sure all equipment would fit and was out of the way for my 60 guests. He graciously learned a few new songs that were special requests and was on prompt and personable. We would definitely recommend him.

Christmas Party•Reviewed on December 17, 2018•From Bellaire, TX
Michael is very punctual on the job. He met with us may times to ensure he got a good sense of the entertainment we needed to make it a success. It was amazing to have him part of our celebration of Christmas. His enthusiasm and love of music is obvious. Our guests all left feeling the cheer and good wishes of this season and Michael can take some credit for this. We would highly recommend him as we hold parties very often and are very careful in our selection of entertainers. Hope this will help others.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on August 13, 2019•From Texas City, TX
Selected Michael after interviewing three candidates for my mother's 80th Birthday Bash. We established a play list but he was very accommodating and creative when guests made requests. Michael's vocal talents are very strong if the requirement is for him to sing. Sight-reading and extemporaneous ability very strong. Great fit for any party. Definitely would select him again.

Funeral•Reviewed on November 19, 2017•From Houston, TX
Michael is a Mozart at the piano. He can play any piece of music put in front of him. He came early to our event, brought his amazing keyboard and was extremely cordial and accommodating. Although we had previously talked about the songs we wanted played, he brought an encyclopedia of books full of music. He can beautifully play anything you request. He has a true desire to make your event special. I would highly recommend Micheal for any event you may planning in your future. Thank you Michael for making our event a memorable one.

Wonderful! Mr. Stringer is very talented! I requested for him to play 6 songs he had never played before and he mastered and performed very nicely! Showed up on time and presented himself very professional. Everyone in my event loved his talent. Highly recommend him! I will certainty hire him again for my next event.

Mr. Michael Stringer is the absolute consummate professional. I can not find enough great things to say about this gentleman. He produced one of the most incredible performances for my fiance's proposal at The Post Oak at Uptown Hotel in Houston. He brought my family to tears after viewing the final professional video. Michael is also a man who is able to work within your budget, is available on very short notice, and is himself an exceptional professional. For my proposal he came dressed to the nines wearing a stunning tuxedo. His piano skills are second to none, leaving us spellbound with, John Legend's, "All of Me" amongst many others. I highly recommend him!!!

Christmas Party•Reviewed on December 13, 2019•From Houston, TX
Michael was the perfect choice for our party. From the moment I booked him until he played his last song, he was professional, accommodating and so talented! He offered to meet prior to the date of the party to go over music selections, was prompt and played beautifully. He really made our party very special. Our guests all loved his music and I will definitely include Michael and his wonderful talent at our next event.
