ART PLAYS KEYBOARDS AND SINGS

Most people  think of me as being a great entertainer. I guess it's true. I love engaging the audience,  love seeing people smile, laugh, sing-along and dance.

Of course, I'm a terrific keyboard player.  I've been playing keyboard around the world for years now.  I also have a rich, powerful, voice and sing with lots of feeling. 

I like playing keyboards along with backing tracks or drum machines for the full sound that gives. But when the room calls for it, I also enjoy the purity of playing acoustic, solo piano.

”Today” newspaper in St. Maarten in the Caribbean said ”This dynamic performer plays music that leaves you feeling alive and wanting to dance.” Sounds right to me.

I could play piano forever. But  people love when I add variety to my show. So I also might throw in some accordion, harmonica or  melodica. These instruments are not just great sight gags. I make them sound great! Plus they're terrific for strolling around a venue and engaging people.

I often like wearing little tambourines  on my shoes for special rhythmic effect and give out shakers so people can play along. You'd be amazed to see how some people love joining in and end up ordering that extra drink. 

Want a karaoke or open mic night? I have all the songs you need. I’m happy to sing-along with people to help them sound better. Plus I'm terrific at playing along with singers on my multiple instruments to give a more live feeling to the show. 

DJ

 DJ Art Now has a skill for reading a crowd and knowing what they want to hear. Whether it's house or reggae, soul music or classic rock, Art Now can keep a crowd dancing all night long. Or simply keep the mood right while I'm on a break from the piano. 

ADVERTISING AND PROMOTION PRO

Before becoming a professional musician, I was an advertising writer/producer for the New York offices of MTV Networks, Sony Music, BMG Music and heavy-hitter ad agencies. Wrote some cool jingles. Worked with big stars. Won lots of awards.

So if you need a pro to write advertising, come up with promotion ideas, music for radio spots, do voice-overs or help with your social media marketing, I'm your man.

Art Now! Why wait?
