FAQ, Booking and General Policy
The songs that make it to the top of our list include: Can’t Help Falling in Love by Kina Grannis, A Thousand Years by Christina Perri, and Marry Me by Train. These are just some of the songs that make it to our top three but there are plenty of other popular songs. Our jazz pianist for hire, Winston, has these songs memorized by heart.
The type of music that a pianist will play depends heavily on your preferences, however, some pianists have specialties. For example, Winston, our jazz piano player based in Los Angeles, specializes in Jazz music but can play a variety of songs, such as ballads, pop songs, and many others.
A pianist does not need plenty of space to perform, however, a piano needs to be present in the venue. You can opt to rent a piano from a third-party provider if there is no piano at the location or let us know so our pianist can bring a portable keyboard to the event. A space for a portable keyboard, chair, and audio equipment will be sufficient.
It is important to choose a pianist who is musically trained and educated and shows good professional behavior. It is also a plus if the pianist specializes in the music genre of your choosing. Many pianists have specialization in various fields of music, best Filipino Jazz Pianist, Winston, specializes in Jazz and Filipino music fusion.

Please Provide Shade/Umbrella
- We require a shade/umbrella for our musicians, instruments, and audio equipment. This is due to the extreme sensitivity of musical instruments to changes in temperature and exposure to sunlight and humidity. In some cases exposure to elements may lead to irreparable damage to the instruments.
Please Prepare a Covered/Dry Location in Case of Rain
- We require a covered/dry location for our musicians, instruments, and audio equipment in case of rain. Exposure to water or humidity is damaging to our musical instruments and audio equipment. In some cases exposure to elements may lead to irreparable damage to the instruments.Â
- We love playing outdoors but in lower temperatures please provide a heater for our musicians. Our musicians remain outdoors for more than an hour with an additional hour to set up before the appointment. The heater will keep them warm before and during their performance.Â

We hired Ocdamia for our wedding in the end of September and were absolutely thrilled with the results. Margie had a wide range of musical options, which was helpful to work with her on in as we hadn’t quite decided what we wanted to use. They’re repertoire was WIDE, we were very impressed with the variety and the arrangements put together. We settled on a solo pianist and she sent over a bunch of options. They were on time and performed beautifully!!
