When I was a child, I wanted to be Kelsi Neilson, a composer, singer and instrumentalist. Now, I play and write for the pure joy it brings myself and others around me, and I want to share this with as many people as possible. Mainly, I specialise in Christian worship as I regularly play at my local church (both Keyboard and Guitar). I try to share the joy and peace that God brings to me with others around me. I’ve always loved playing acoustic covers to well-known songs on my guitar or piano and sharing these with others around me.

Eliza May's Reviews

5 out of 5

Eliza's musical talent is nothing short of enchanting! Her piano performances at church create an atmosphere of serenity and spiritual elevation. The way she effortlessly weaves melodies together is truly awe-inspiring. Her dedication to teaching others is equally admirable, as she shares not just her musical skills but also a profound passion for the art. Her music doesn't just resonate in the notes she plays but also in the hearts she touches. Thank you for sharing your extraordinary gift with the world, Lizzy!

I am a Parish Priest who employs Eliza May as my Secretary for 18 hours/week. Lizzy also serves on a voluntary basis as a worship leader in the parish, leading on keyboard or guitar with vocals. She has led worship in churches and public hospitality venues, giving a confident lead to enable congregations to join in or sometimes just listen.

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

My gentle voice suits the acoustic, rustic sound they're aiming for, usually either in a prayerful atmosphere or as background music.

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

Mainly in churches but I've done the odd university event and pub show.

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

It sounds cheesy, but my main influence growing up was Kelsi Nielson from High School Musical. Also, I admire Taylor Swift, Selena Gomez, Adelle, Emmelie de Forest, Alnis Morissette, Lauren Daigle and Jenn Johnson.

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

Probably some of the events that were held when at university.

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

I am always happy to adapt to your needs and to work with you to make your day as easy as possible.

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

Sadly not, but it's something that I am working towards.

How much time do you need to set up?

I will usually need a maximum of an hour to set up and practice. However, if I'm coming to play an available piano the time will be less.

If I have a piano at my venue, are you happy to perform on that?

Yes, of course - as long as the piano is in working order and in tune, then I'm happy to play on it!

Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?

Of course! I want to play what's best for your event and will always be happy to learn new pieces for you. I'm always happy to chat through and make sure we find what works for your event.

Are you able to bring your own piano or keyboard?

Yes, absolutely! I bring my own instrument to play acoustically. It will have to be a stage piano though.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

Of course! But, depending on the difficulty, there may be a fee. This is something that I'm happy to discuss with you so we can work out what's best for your event.
