The act is based in the central belt of Scotland and is willing to travel for events.
Gregor Blamey is a trained Classical and Jazz Pianist (and Organist) who is available for hire for wedding ceremonies, drinks receptions, wedding meals and for private parties or functions.
After graduating from the RSAMD, now the RCS, Gregor then went on to study Jazz at St Andrews University before becoming a show-band musician and cocktail pianist with Carnaval Cruise Lines. It's this musical education and experience that allows him to turn his hand to lots of different musical styles and genres. He can perform more formal music for your ceremony on the piano or organ. He can also provide a wide selection of music for your drinks reception or during your meal, including popular wedding songs, pop, rock, jazz, swing, light classical and songs from the stage & TV.
Please also note that if your venue has a Piano, Pipe or Electric Organ, Gregor is happy to perform on this provided this has been approved beforehand. If it does not, he can provide a full size digital Piano which includes high quality Piano and Organ sounds complete with professional PA system.
Gregor also has a professional piano shell which transforms his digital piano into a baby grand.
Testimonials:
"We cannot recommend Gregor enough. For our wedding we specifically wanted three songs one of which did not have sheet music available but was a particular favourite of my new husband, Gregor learnt this from listening to the song, he played a great version of it and it was instantly recognisable and enjoyed by family. We also received lots of positive comments from many of the guests who enjoyed Gregors playing. We would also say he was very professional on the day and very responsive to any requests or suggestions we had prior to it."
-- Tracy and David, Archerfield House
"Gregor performed a wonderful selection of pieces whilst our guests arrived at our castle wedding. He created a perfect atmosphere from the outset and numerous guests (many of them musicians) commented on the high standard of his musicianship. We would have no hesitation in highly recommending him for your special day."
-- Alasdair and Sharon Grant, Fyvie Castle
"I really can’t recommend Gregor highly enough! He was so accommodating and helpful from the very beginning, his professional yet friendly attitude really put me at ease. I don’t remember much of the ceremony as it all went by in such a blur, but one thing that I do remember is the beautiful music! It created the perfect atmosphere and really made everything flow so smoothly. Thank you so much for everything Gregor!"
-- Mark & Heather Copeland, Ingliston Country Club
"Throughout the build up to the wedding, Gregor provided great advice and recordings to help us make our decision. Thanks to Gregor the music we chose was perfect for the day and it was played expertly. There was absolutely no fuss, and we received many compliments about the quality of Gregor’s playing. Would highly recommend him!"
-- David & Jaimie Anderson, Western House Hotel
