Holiday PartyReviewed on December 17, 2023From Hinsdale, IL

Steven was absolutely amazing! We had a Christmas party of 50 people and Steven had each of them engaged and singing. Every guest left just raving about him. Our guests ranged from 16 to 70 and he was able to sing and play any song given to him. Will look forward booking him again next year.

Private PartyReviewed on August 25, 2019From Deerfield, IL

Steven was a great addition to our party. Everyone loved him! He kept the energy up, took requests and accompanied our guests when they had to write their own songs. We would highly recommend him for any type of event.

Top Musician for Hire in Chicago - Piano by Steven:

Thanks, Stacey for the kind words. Wow was that a fun party! Loved all the guests in their 'Broadway Show' costumes and accompanying them on their very clever and funny original songs, along with all the sing-alongs and requests throughout the night. Cool house, cool party and wonderful hosts...and guests! Thanks for having me at the piano. Looking forward to being of service to you at the piano at your next fun party. And what an added thrill to be able to hold and take a picture with one of your husband's Tony Awards!
