Jazz pianist and multi-instrumentalist Robert Dimbleby has been making a name for himself with his original blend of jazz, funk and soul from a young age. His videos online have amassed millions of views and he has performed across Europe and at prestigious venues and festivals in the UK with a diverse range of bands covering poetry, hip-hop, nu-disco, funk, and jazz. He is classically trained from the age of 6 reaching grade 8 and beyond, holding a DipABRSM in classical piano performance.

Having recently left Trinity Laban studying jazz piano at postgraduate level, he is now an in demand session musician and pianist working with vocalists, instrumentalists, and as a solo performer. Robert's original music has been heard on BBC radios across the country and his musicality and versatility makes him an exceptional performer in any setting.

Robert plays regularly at private weddings and events, guests of which have included such names as Liam Neeson, Daniel Day Lewis, and Leo Sutter.

Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

All I need is a power socket and I'm good to go!


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

I provide all necessary sound equipment, and I have 2 Neewer lights that can be used to great a nice effect on the piano.


What information do you require about a venue?

Just the address and which is the best entrance to use.


Can you provide a Spotify/DJ service before and between your sets?

Yes, happy to provide an iPod / background music service.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

The biggest gig I've ever done was performing on the main stage at YNOT festival, or perhaps BBC studios. It was amazing to get to perform to thousands of people, or in the case of BBC studios, the whole nation!


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

My biggest influences are jazz pianists Oscar Peterson and Wynton Kelly, and my favourite song is probably Skylark or Someday My Prince Will Come


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

I have been performing since the age of 13 and have enjoyed gigging since then at many amazing venues in the UK and beyond.


What's your favourite type of event to play at?

I love just creating an atmosphere at whatever the event may be. Some background jazz piano at a wedding adds a lovely touch of class!

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

Honestly, the time very much varies from client to client, anything from 30 mins to 3 hours I have done before.


Are you happy to perform outside?

Yes absolutely, as long as it's not raining or there is a gazebo.


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

Yes I'm more than happy to learn any requests.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Previous clients have described my performances as top notch and incredibly personalized to their music tastes.
