The Story
How did it all start and where's it going?
In 2009, musician and entrepreneur Carl Williams set to work on a project that had been on the back-burner for years. To put together a show featuring 2 piano entertainers and a drummer where the entertainers took audience requests and performed them live on the spot. He put together a website and started to make some calls.
It took a few months before the first booking came in, but as soon as it did, he and his father built 2 wooden piano shells from plywood. Carl called around to find a suitable entertainer and a drummer, borrowed some PA equipment and before long was performing at the first PianoFactor Duelling Pianos gig. The event was a success and a couple of new bookings came off the back of this first gig.
Looking back Carl say's "It was by no means the show it is today - but It was the gig that started it all!". The concept has developed into a streamlined and truly exceptional show, with PianoFactor performing at around 100 events each year.
The Show
And how it can work for your event.
We can create our shows according to the client's wishes and offer various lineups ranging from a single pianist to a six piece band. The set times can be altered and the team are open to suggestions i.e. fitting in with a theme, branding the Pianos to suit your event, creating stings for award ceremonies or even providing gentle music during the dinner or drinks reception.
Since the main focus is entertaining and engaging the audience as much as possible, PianoFactor gladly take requests, encourage audience participation and always provide a stunning performance that will involve everybody. We provide a show like no other and the team will make you feel comfortable and secure from the moment you first get in touch.
