About
Natalie Davis is a solo pianist and singer for hire in Newcastle, NSW.
Nat is a Newcastle pianist and singer who graduated with a Bachelor of Music from the University of Newcastle in 2021, then started her own tuition school and has been gigging steadily ever since. Vocals are her strength, but she accompanies herself on keys, which makes the solo set self-contained: soulful piano and voice, dialled up or down depending on the room. She also plays as a duo with guitarist Ben Skuse. The songbook runs from Fleetwood Mac and ABBA to Dua Lipa and Harry Styles, with Valerie and Don't Stop Believin' never far away. She works weddings, restaurants, pubs, markets and private functions. She brings her own gear and needs a powerpoint.

The show
Nat's voice is the main event, and the keys underneath it are hers too, so the solo set stands up on its own without sounding thin. She's been gigging around five years and teaches through the week, which shows in how steady the playing is. Add her guitarist and it lifts into something more upbeat that fills a whole venue. She's as comfortable at an artisan market on a Saturday morning as she is at a wedding or a pub, and the songbook shifts to match.
On the day
She brings all of her own gear. What she needs from you is access to a powerpoint and enough room to set up where she isn't in the way of your guests or the service. That's genuinely it. Let her know the shape of the space when you enquire and she'll work out where she fits best.
Performance options
Two ways to have her. Solo is piano and vocals, self accompanied, which suits a ceremony, a restaurant or anywhere you want the music present but not loud. The duo adds Ben on guitar, giving you piano, guitar and vocals together for a fuller, more upbeat sound.
