Henry Newbury

Hi! I'm Henry and I'm a pianist and vocalist living in Reading. I have over 6 years experience playing all kinds of events, from pubs, to festivals, corporate events, and weddings in the UK and abroad. I play by ear and have a great ability to learn quickly and improvise - if there's a song I've heard before I can probably play it, and if I can't play it yet then I'll learn it. I have a wide repertoire for several hours of classic pop/rock/indie songs (Elton John, Adele, Coldplay, Billy Joel, Keane, Tom Odell, Oasis, Taylor Swift, Phoebe Bridgers, Bon Iver, Stevie Wonder etc), either instrumental or with vocals, and can improvise for any amount of time outside of this and can also learn requests for special occasions such as first dances etc. I began uploading cover videos online a decade ago, and soon after this began running several popular weekly open mic night events in Southampton, where I would host and mix via Logic Pro as well as accompany singers on piano or guitar. I later won Pride In London's Pride's Got Talent competition, and have been fortunate to play Pride festivals across the UK, and further abroad in Europe. I have played at pubs for over half a decade and weddings for several years now and am delighted to have many happy clients. I have several videos online, please do take a look if you would like more of an idea of what I do. I can also play any song I do as a vocalist as simply a piano instrumental, and can tinker away for hours on end if needed with a range of cocktail dinner ambient instrumental piano covers spread over a variety of genres. Please don't hesitate to get in touch, I would love to hear from you and look forward to being able to help your event!
