Music Website OnlyPiano.com Launches a Home for Solo Keyboard Artists and Piano Fans

December 03, 2004 (PRLEAP.COM) Entertainment News
If you're a fan of Fats Waller, David Lanz, Vince Guaraldi or any of a thousand other piano players, you know how difficult it has been to find a web portal for your taste. That problem is now history. OnlyPiano.com opened this week with a number of features that help the piano fan and artist alike - and it's all free.

OnlyPiano.com includes the usual news and resource links - but this time it's specific to piano. If fact, OnlyPiano.com has its own Web radio station, Only Piano Radio, which features new and established jazz, new-age, classical and indie piano music - it runs 24 hours a day.

Gary Bryant, a piano player and composer himself, was frustrated by the lack of web venues for piano music. Most online music venues are geared towards more main stream markets like rock, hip-hop and alternative music - music of interest to the strongest on-line market place - college students.

"Nothing wrong with that," says Bryant, "but there are other kinds of music and other ways to play it. Not every performer can be marketed as an edgy 'Indie Band' nor should they be, says Bryant, "There are thousands of excellent piano players and millions of people who like listening to them. Yet, if you're a solo jazz or new-age pianist there really hasn't been a successful web home for your music. We hope OnlyPiano.com serves that need for artists and fans alike.
