Lehigh Valley Piano Music

Joe Lazorik's
"Good Times Piano
Music"
Specializing in Honky-Tonk and Sing-a-longs
Including all your favorite HOLIDAY Songs too!
Experience Unique
Old Fashioned Lehigh Valley Music Piano Live Player Entertainment !
Hire a Piano Player like Joe Lazorik for your next party or special event for unique live local music!
With over 40 years of professional piano playing
experience, Joe Lazorik allows his versatile style to adapt
to your entertainment needs. Joe sees that the idea of a bar with a piano
has rapidly faded (See description below for
"Old-Time Piano") and he is trying to
revive that entertainment concept to it's once grand glory. If there is a piano
available and a small crowd, he can make everyone's night enjoyable.
In addition to being able to provide cocktail and dinner music for your
event, Joe can also entertain with "Player Piano"
and Old Time Saloon style Honky-Tonk music for everyone's listening and
singing pleasure. Song sheets are available for any audience
members to join in if desired, sampling turn of the century classics,
barroom standards, folk songs, ballads, patriotic selections, show
tunes, TV theme songs, plus classic rock and pop hits of the 50's, 60's
and 70's. Also, a "guest microphone" is usually available for
those who want to share the spotlight in song.
Audience participation is encouraged
(see photos) and Joe's objective is
always for everyone in attendance to have fun!
Joe has provided holiday entertainment for
distinguished groups like the Historic Bethlehem Organization,
and would love to play for your special event too.
If you're in the Eastern Pennsylvania /
Western New Jersey area, have a piano, and want to liven up your party or establishment,
consider Joe for a refreshing change!
(Piano Entertainment can also be customized to
accommodate private residences, church groups, senior communities, and
other non-traditional settings too. Contact Joe to arrange a
program to fit YOUR entertainment needs!)
Joe is more than just a piano player, he is a piano
entertainer who can adapt to all audiences!

Old-time
Piano n (öld-tím pee-âh-nö) - The style of piano playing found
primarily in public venues of performance between 1890 and 1929, particularly in drinking
establishments and at Ragtime competitions, consisting of popular songs of that era,
including traditional jazz, Ragtime, and early stride piano. This genre of popular
music was indigenous to the United States and the prevalent form of social entertainment.
Fact: A
hundred years ago the piano was the most prized possession in the
entertainment circle. In the early days of the Colonies, more pianos
were imported into this country than there were people! |
Joe is a unique
Pennsylvania piano player and entertainer who has
brought "Old Time Piano" into the 21st Century
encouraging song requests, sing alongs, group participation, audience "guest"
performers and more! (Often, the patrons become the entertainment for each
other.) You'll also hear music you haven't heard in years that will stir up
guaranteed memories of Good Times!
Live Local Piano Music like
it used to be!
In addition to
Honky-Tonk and Ragtime selections, Joe's performances always include an assortment of
classic hits from artists like: Frank Sinatra, Billy Joel, Al Alberts, Patsy Cline,
Connie Francis, Tony Orlando, Judy Garland, The Beatles, Herman's Hermits, The Four Aces,
Elvis Presley, Debbie Reynolds, Louie Armstrong, Jimmy Buffet, Roy Orbison, Gene Kelly,
The Carpenters, Roger Miller, Bobby Darin, Burt Bacharach, Lesley Gore, Neil Sedaka, Dion,
Elton John, The Mills Brothers, and more! Plus, Joe
provides song sheets with the words to these great songs so YOU can sing along
too! Also take a trip down memory lane with music from TV shows and
commercials long forgotten but easily remembered. Sometimes
impromptu silliness breaks out while interacting with the audience and
there's no telling what will happen next! All of this together is
why "Good Times Piano Music" is the best way to describe
Joe. Truly unique Lehigh Valley Music! |
Joe has been told by many that he is not
just a Piano Player, but a Piano Entertainer!
If you want a piano
player for your Christmas Party, Holiday Party, or Private Party - Joe is
