Orwin's profile picture
Pianist
Leeds

I am a recent music graduate from Uni of York but have been sing-songwriting from as early as 11. Music has always been a great source of passion for m. I grew up with my dad playing the piano as a child and knew that this instrument was meant for me. As I grew older and more skilled at the piano, my compositions started to become more imaginative and complex. I love writing simple yet effective melodies that succinctly express what I can't into words. I also have an affinity for classical piano, finding it so rewarding to express the music of a great composer with my own hands. Having achieved a distinction at Grade 8 and teaching myself guitar throughout my university experience, my songwriting and musicianship is beginning to blossom into what I want it to be. My musical highlights include open mics in York where the room would fall silent as I sang my original songs. I performed in accapella choirs and conducted for a few chamber groups during my studies. I also hosted a private concert where I performed my diploma repertoire including Beethoven's Sonata Pathetique, which was a pivotal moment for me. Music impassions me. I love involving myself in new, creative styles and ways of twisting musical elements to become my own. I love composing lyrics that poetically express my feelings into gentle words. To perform it is the greatest thing.

Every time she sings at our open mics, the room tunes in to what she has to sing. An incredibly talented and overall friendly musician. Really loved having her here!

Customer questions

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

I always try to help things run as relaxed and as organised as possible. If your timings change as the event approaches, just let me know as soon as you have an idea of what's changing when :)

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

I don't provide an iPod/DJ service I'm afraid :(

How much time do you need to set up?

Usually, with equipment and rehearsal time, it takes roughly an hour to be properly set up before I start performing. As soon as the sound check and vibes are smooth, we're good to go!

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

Yes! Absolutely! As long as it's in working shape and roughly in tune, I'm more than happy to give a piano performance.

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

I am more than open to suggestions. I can't guarantee every song request will be possible to play, depending on how much time/notice I have in advance, but I am very happy to collaborate with my clients in order to ensure they're getting exactly what they want.

Are you able to bring your own piano or keyboard?

No, unfortunately however, I do bring my own guitar.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

Yes, absolutely. As long as the song isn't too technically demanding, I am more than happy to learn new songs. The fee for this is £20, taking extra rehearsal time into consideration
