About / Biography

I’m Nova on Piano – a contemporary pianist vocalist creating romantic, stylish atmospheres for weddings and events across the UK. From timeless ceremony moments to relaxed drinks receptions, I bring a beautiful blend of acoustic pop, cinematic instrumentals, and love song classics — all performed live on piano or piano vocal.

Whether you want a Bridgerton-inspired aisle walk, a stripped-back version of your favourite song, or a romantic piano vocal cover of something unexpected, I’ll work with you to create a setlist that feels uniquely yours.

I have appeared live on Channel 4’s ‘THE PIANO’ with my reimagined version of a Guns n Roses Classic, with fantastic feedback from MIKA and Claudia Winkleman !

  • A Thousand Years – Christina Perri
  • All of Me – John Legend
  • Can’t Help Falling in Love – Elvis
  • Bridgerton / classical crossover themes
  • Disney, Ed Sheeran, Elton John, Taylor Swift & more

I’m happy to learn a special request for your — or help you pick songs that capture the mood you want to create.

πŸ“Available for:

  • Wedding Ceremony
  • Drinks reception
  • Couple’s entrance or first dance
  • Custom packages
  • Corporate launches and parties
  • Private parties and occasions
  • Christenings

Stylish, elegant, and always heartfelt – allow me to make the soundtrack to your big event unforgettable.

My Performance & Musical Background⭐️

Alongside my wedding work, as a classically trained musician and qualified teacher, I bring a rich background in live performance, teaching, and music arrangement. I have advanced musicianship skills in harmony, arranging, sight-reading, and songwriting, and regularly perform with a range of top tier artists and bands — offering both piano and lead/backing vocals at an advanced level.

Recent highlights include festival appearances supporting headline acts at PRIDE Eastleigh and the world-renowned Victorious Festival in Portsmouth. I’m also a resident musician at The Botanist cocktail bar chain (as seen on Channel 4’s First Dates), and will be performing at the nationally acclaimed Wickham Festival this year!

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever played at?

I played a completely bespoke 80's set for a client's 50th party and everyone including myself had the best evening imaginable!.
Everyone was dressed up in full 80's attire and danced the night away !!


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

Kate Bush for her inspiring song writing and unique style encompassing vocal and piano. Wuthering Heights is a favourite song of mine! I also adore the uplifting vibe and audience feedback that I receive from both my Kate Bush and Elton John covers.


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

I started classical piano lessons aged 4 so have played and sung all my life. I started back up professionally after a busy teaching career with my friends I had worked at music college with; we created a vocal harmony acoustic trio together.

I love to play at all my different venues for different reasons but I particularly love how well Plano and vocal adds magic to a wedding.
