Introduction

I have been in the entertainment industry for over 30 years. I have played keyboard for senior living facilities (including independent living, assisted living, and skilled nursing), concerts, restaurants, private parties, and corporate events. I specialize in music that appeals to the 55+ age group. The genres I play include Big Band, Standards, 20’s - 80's, Broadway, Easy Listening, Country and Gospel. I can also play special requested music. I use a Roland keyboard that is easily transportable, doesn’t require much space and has excellent sound quality. The setup/breakdown is very quick and easy. All I need is an outlet! The keyboard features many different instruments that sound like a piano, or guitar, or a big swing band or full orchestra. I also play Lowrey organs. I’m laid back, easy going and enjoy entertaining seniors. I have been told I'm a very expressive player and can provide many references. I can play for a party of 2, or for a ballroom filled with guests. I love giving people the gift of music! 🎶🎶

Hired on Thumbtack

I hired Jett to play for my mother's 70th birthday party. He arrived early to set up, was very professional and did an amazing job! Everyone enjoyed his music and he played some special requests of Barry Manilow for my mother; she was brought to tears in the best way. It was a perfect day and I couldn't be more pleased. Thank you for making my mother's party one to remember. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone!
