About Jamie

Surrey's #1 pianist with unmatched versatility; not just a performer but also an arranger, MD and accompanist, to bring your event to life!
Pianist
Sutton

I am a trained and experienced solo pianist/keyboardist with a versatile range of mainstream covers drawn from pop, indie, rock, blues, soul and classical. Garden parties, functions, restaurants/bars, birthdays etc can also be quoted for; please send me a message with your requirements. More uniquely, I am a music postgraduate also experienced in arranging any piece for any combination of instruments or band to your requirements. One booking requested an orchestra + band version of Nina Simone's Feelin' Good. (nearly as big as Bublé, but not quite...) This arrangement also had to be easy to play for school age children. Please also see the review for this wedding. Are you looking for: A performer of mellow ambient background music for your event, conference, or exhibition? Maybe you'd like something more upbeat and involving for your wedding? Or have you already sorted a band, but just need an arranger/MD? I can meet all of the above. I have performed at many weddings in a diverse range of locations, and I am the official pianist at Grittenham Barn in West Sussex; there are some special rates available. Please contact me for further details of those. In fact, please contact me anyway, for a friendly informal chat about any aspect of your wedding or event - whether you have any questions, special requests, or dress codes! Standard repertoire is listed below. If you would like a song or piece that isn't in the list, please let me know and I'll do the rest. Please note this will incur an extra fee, which covers sourcing the sheet music and preparation time. I can also be hired as an accompanist.

Jamie was excellent! He played piano during our lawn drinks reception and then inside during our wedding breakfast. He played a mixture of pop, rock and music from films as requested and it was exactly what we'd hoped for. He offered to play for longer which we happily said yes to but we perhaps should have considered costs before squiffily saying yes, but do not regret it as he was great and gave an excellent vibe for the day! Lots of compliments from guests and fantastic communication before and after the event!

I would like to recommend Jamie Gray for events large or small. He played piano for a charity fundraising event I was organising outside in a garden attended by 150 people. As requested he played a mixture of classical and contemporary pieces but also hits from the Blitz and some jazz. Jamie was fantastic, super accomplished, and he really made the occasion very special. Jamie went above and beyond what was expected of him and I have no hesitation in recommending him.
