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
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.
