Great Entertainers - Piano and Keyboard Players
Today, we are getting into my favorite instrument of any great band (probably because it's what I do most of the time)—the PIANO and KEYBOARD players.
Often, the pianist is a largely unnoticed position in a band, but simultaneously is often crucial to giving a band the necessary pieces to complete the sound it desires. When you have a musician who can both help to solidify the sound AND add to the stage show, it is a great combination that can help the show get so much better. Let's look at 5 piano / keyboard players who embody the essence of a great entertainer!
- Entertainer #1: Known for his on stage antics, this piano player was one of the first to have a larger than life stage presence.
- Entertainer #2: This individual writes incredible music that many of us know, but is also incredible at getting the audience to participate in the show.
- Entertainer #3: Having joined a popular progressive rock band about 20 years ago, this classically-trained keyboardist is often at the forefront of piano technology and creates amazing and technically difficult music with ease.
- Entertainer #4: Known for his quirky personality and writing style, this artist is very comfortable talking with crowds which makes his shows very fun and inviting.
- Entertainer #5: One of the great songwriters of the last half century, the pop icon is everywhere in music and movies and is often seen wearing elaborate costumes.
Come and watch these examples of truly exceptional piano and keyboard players who are great on stage.
