I have been playing guitar in Austin, Texas... ...since 1989. I am a full time musician and I perform regularly for corporate events and weddings. Even though I have been playing the guitar for so long there is still so much to learn. I enjoy the process of learning new things and improving on what I already know. There are endless ways you can play a song and there are so many good songs to play. I was born in 1966 so I am heavily influenced by the music around that era which explains The Beatles, Stevie Wonder and The Great American Songbook.

Music is my passion and I truly love providing the soundtrack for life's most special moments. I moved to Austin six years ago to be a part of the incredible live music scene. I'm obsessed with everything about Austin (I mean, who can live without breakfast tacos?), and I absolutely LOVE what I do. I've been a full-time musician for nearly 10 years and have performed at 200+ weddings and countless events. My two most requested packages are solo (piano + vocals), or duo (piano + vocals + guitar). I’ve seen it all and I promise you can trust me to make your wedding music memorable, beautiful, and fun! --- Learn more at: www.mikaelakahn.com
