Corporate Meetings
- "Mark was terrific and he played several times for our recent large snowed-in convention group at JW Marriott in Savannah. Mark was only supposed to play twice, but due to the weather circumstances he played three cocktail receptions and in our hotel bar takeover as well. Our attendees were absolutely delighted with his playing and singing and Mark's innate ability to engage his audiences and his enthusiasm and talents."

- “Mark is VERY talented and was more than capable to play ANY song from any genre that was asked of him. We were MORE than pleased with his personality, his interaction with our clients and his musical abilities! He is a great guy and a 5 star hire!! We WILL be hiring him in the future for sure."
- I hired Mark for a sophisticated party at the Madison Club and he met all my expectations. He played during cocktail hour and he did a great job with very little guidance on my end. I highly recommend him. Great pianist, very professional and friendly.
Wedding Cocktail Hour
- "Mark played an extraordinary 2 hour cocktail hour, beyond my wildest dreams. He put everyone at ease after a long ceremony and was the perfect precursor to the dinner reception. He even had my Uncle singing New York,New York which everyone loved. He played songs for the younger generation as well as sang some old songs for my great grandmother. She was thrilled." Robin.
-"Mark was an amazing addition to our daughters New Years Eve wedding! He played for all our guests during cocktail hour. He graciously accepted requests, had many people around the piano singing with him and they loved every minute of it! His selection of songs was endless. Family and friends are still talking about his music abilities and his outgoing, lovely personality. What a great entertainer he is. I would invite him to be a part of any gathering. He is truly amazing"! Mary K.
Upscale Restaurants
- “His piano playing is unbelievably great, as well as his "presence" in the room. He played a full three hours with no breaks, singing to the audience within a variety of musical genres from Sinatra/Martin to Billy Joel to Elton John and including the Beatles and Steely Dan.
The man can play to any room”
- Jon W. Rogers, Nightlife Chicago
Private Party
"We loved Mark’s enthusiasm for our private party and he played beautifully for our guests. We will absolutely hire Mark again for our next private party in our home.
