We were holding a Cockney Night at our local pub and selected Eugene from many sing along pianists on the internet based on what we saw on his website, all questions being answered in a timely manner and a fair price.

What a Find!! Eugene is a true professional and a Gentleman. Nothing was too much trouble. Ample song sheets were provided for the singalong, which went down well. He received several requests during the evening and just played naturally without any musical scores.

The evening was a total success, mostly thanks to Eugene. I know he will be back by popular demand!!

Mr Portman held our inaugural “cockney knees up” and wow!

Super timely and enthusiastic, he instilled a real party atmosphere, ensuring everyone went away with a big smile! Very generous with his time, and well worth every penny. If your wish is to have a proper sing along, he’s your guy!

We were so thrilled we have booked him to come back two more times! but hurry as his diary is filling up!

Overall, very happy with how the evening went and well worth the small expense.

Eugene,

Just a line to thank you so much for coming all the way to Quorn to entertain my guests at my 80th birthday party.

Your talents went a long way towards making the event a great success and everyone enjoyed the good old knees up – followed by your lovely reflective piano playing before the disco got underway.

Best regards,

Eric Harding

Eugene provided the pubs clientele with a great nights entertainment aided by, amongst others, members of the Cathedral choir singing slightly different songs than they are used to! We will rebook early next year.

What a fab night – one we’re all still talking about!
Thanks Eugene for coming to our little Yarwell pub to help celebrate my Dad’s 70th with a Cockney Sing-along. What an amazingly talented pianist – you created a wonderful atmosphere – helped of course by our very willing regulars that are always keen to get behind a mic!
Great night – highly recommended – would not hesite in replicating when the next opportunity to do so arises. Thank you for making it a memorable evening.

Eugene is without doubt a superb pianist. He provided a full evening of fantastic entertainment for our first Cockney night.

He provided song sheets to assist those who stepped up to the mic.

Think of it as a 1940’karaoke, but with a real life musician. I can’t recommend him highly enough.

Eugene recently played for us at my parents Golden wedding anniversary. He played an excellent array of tunes and then played the good old oldies for the guests to sing along to with song sheets and microphones. Eugene also dressed in the cockney style which really was a great finishing touch. Eugene was excellent value for money and his skills as a pianist are exemplary. The event was greatly enjoyed by all.
