Curate a mood with live music.
Private Events
Custom Live Music
Live music is an essential piece of creating the right atmosphere. For an ambient experience that can’t be replicated, hire Kelsey as a solo performer on piano or harp, or choose a jazz ensemble to carry through a bigger crowd. Kelsey lifts the energy at private events ranging from cocktail hours to wedding ceremonies.
Kelsey is based in the midwest, traveling a regular radius between her home town providing live music in Evansville, Indiana to live music in Chicago, Illinois. She also has a seasonal circuit of traveling performing house concerts and private parties during the holidays and summers.
Use the calendar below to check Kelsey’s private booking availability, or to book a consultation for planning the event. You can reach Kelsey directly at kelsey.georgesen@gmail.com.
Cocktail Hours & Parties
Elevate your party with music that flows and adapts with the mood. Described by a recent client as, “playing really hip music, but making it suave and sophisticated,” Kelsey has a way of transforming your party so that it’s unlike any other.
Corporate Events
Bring an element of finesse to your next company gathering. Make this an event to remember and show that your business has class with live music customized to fit the theme of the gathering.
Weddings
Hire live music for the ceremony, reception, and everything in between. Kelsey offers piano renditions of your favorite pieces, and has a jazz trio available if you’re looking for an elevated mood to bring to your cocktail hour.
House Concerts
Hiring live music for house parties is something that has become corporate lately (I’m looking at you, Sofar Sounds) but you can host an intimate and unique gathering with a house concert. Done in a variety of ways, a house concert involved pooling together with friends to host a music act for the night, and will be more memorable than any party OR concert you’ve ever been to. Promise.

Testimonials
Amber & Ben Wallin’s Wedding
“I got married in June 2019, and it was a magical Chicago wedding. I wish I could say my hard work planning kick-ass vows, an open bar and fresh flowers stole the show, but the reality is that the live music took center stage. I’d describe myself as an unconventional bride. My favorite song is Rihanna’s club banger “We Found Love,” because my husband and I met on Tinder (truly a hopeless place). When I asked Kelsey if she could play this song on the piano as I walked down the aisle, she smiled and suggested we up the ante--Rihanna’s “We Found Love” on the harp. Yes, this queen rented a harp, and played this incredible ballad as I walked down the aisle. Jaw Drop! Additionally, she organized a live band trio for cocktail hour featuring a bass player, a saxophonist and her epic piano stylings. If that wasn’t enough she also served as the DJ when the party started popping. I shared no less than 60 songs with her, and she led the twerkfest til midnight. A wedding takes months of planning, and when the big day comes, it’s an all day affair. I can say with joy that Kelsey was there for the entire experience. When it came to my budget, I had to make some tough decisions, a lot of amenities were cut. But, live music stayed on the top of my list because of Kelsey Georgesen. Give this girl all of your money!”
