More About iain_piano_man

I wasn't expecting to make a living from music but in 2018, I suddenly found myself on board a five star river cruise ship sailing in Europe doing the same thing in 2019.

Obviously the 2020 season did not happen so whilst stuck at home, I started live-streaming here playing the sort of music you would have heard had you been on board: standards - American and jazz, show tunes, a few popular classics and singer-songwriters especially Elton John and Billy Joel. I also play one or two of mine if the mood is right.

I'm now working full time in the UK so music returns to being my main hobby and first love and Street Jelly will be my way of scratching that performance itch - albeit only at weekends and evenings!

I have a soundcloud account with some of my own songs and a youtube channel for occasional virtual band videos. Apart from music, I write a daily blog and have done so since January 2018.

Enjoy!
Fun Stuff about the Artist

Life on the Street

I gave up lessons after Grade 2 because I hated my teacher and wanted to learn the trombone instead.

A guest last season found out about this and told me I was the greatest Grade 2 piano player in the world.

I must put that on a T-shirt one day....

Embarrassing Moment

Playing the Wombles theme tune at a concert hall to accompany a recorder big band and completely getting it wrong, stopping, standing up and apologising before starting again...
