   About LENNY PICKO
Cops & Robbers

SESSION MUSICIAN - SONGWRITER - COMPOSER - BACKGROUND PIANIST - ARTIST

In 2005 I graduated from the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts acquiring a BA (Hons) in Music. During this time I had experience writing music for films and media, a range of songs for various genres/styles and performing in live bands, ensembles and site specific projects covering many genres.

Since leaving LIPA I have travelled all over Europe gigging with a band called 'Mongo Lounge'. Some of the gigs included the ever growing 'Lake of Stars Festival' in malawi, the 'AB+ Club' in Turin and 'Chibuku Shake Shake' in Liverpool and London. I have also toured the UK as the drummer of Pop/Electro band 'DEFEND MOSCOW'. We supported such acts as: Sam Sparro, The Wombats, Sneaky Sound System, Team Waterpolo and released two limited edition singles 'Manifesto' & 'Die Tonight' with an Independant label called 'KIDS'. Both of these tracks featured LENNY PICKO remixes.

REMIXES:
Defend Moscow ‘Manifesto’ – Under the name Lenny Picko
Defend Moscow ‘Die Tonight’ – Under the name Lenny Picko
Magic Wands ‘Warrior’ – Under the name Defend Moscow
Le Corps Mince De Francoise ‘Something Golden’ – Under the name Lenny Picko

INSTRUMENTS INCLUDE:
Piano/keys (Fender rhodes, synths, hammond etc), Drums/perc, Bass guitar, voice.

BACKGROUND PIANIST:
Need a pianist to add a touch of atmosphere and distinction to your event. I provide background piano for restaurants, hotels, corporate events, private functions and weddings.

The music featured in my set aims to cover many genres so that there is a little something to suit most tastes: Classic Pop, Contemporary Pop, Rock, Soul, Motown, Melodic Jazz, Film Themes and Light Classical.

Listen to me play: Below is a video featuring some examples of my repertoire - A Million Love Songs, Chasing Cars and Nature Boy.

I have a tuxedo, transport and my own digital piano and portable keyboard amp if your venue does not already have a piano.

If you are interested in hiring me for an event, please email me (lennypicko@yahoo.co.uk). I can provide examples of my piano playing, more information of my repertoire or prices at your request.

ARTWORK:
Aside from music, I experiment with Art & Design. Some prints of my Spray paint art pieces are featured on this site ('Cops & Robbers' & 'Self Portrait'). If you are interested in my artwork or would like to commission me to create a piece of your own, please get in touch.

If you have any projects that you think I would be suitable for or if you are a company or artist looking for songs, compositions or remixes then please do contact me...I am always keen to get involved.

Wow!
That's a change of tune. Missing Liverpool, all good! I am very well thank you sweetheart. Me, Jo and Kirsti have just moved into a fab flat right on Lark Lane, right next to the park! whoop whoop summer! We can see tree's from every window. I love it! Just been crazy unpacking boxes.

Work's going well too, not getting a momment to myself. It's hard work but I am really lucky to be doing cool projects and meeting new people.

How are you? Sorry London did not work out. What's next? If you are ever passing you must come and have dinner with the ladies!

Love to you xxxx
