Carl kept my guests entertained and the dance floor full all night.
PianoFactor is a full-time live entertainment company led by Carl Williams, built around professional, request-driven piano shows. Our performers don’t just play songs — they deliver live entertainment that works. They read rooms, work seamlessly with venues and event teams, and perform confidently under real event conditions.
Over the years, our piano entertainers have performed at an extraordinary range of venues and events — from private celebrations and corporate functions to large-scale public shows and televised productions. That experience shapes how we approach every booking, regardless of size.

Absolutely!
We take song requests throughout the night, and they’re a big part of what makes our shows interactive and fun.
While we don’t use a fixed setlist, the flow of the evening is always directed by our entertainers — reading the room, choosing the right moments, and mixing requests with big anthems and dance-floor classics to keep the energy high.
If there’s a special song you’d like in advance (first dance, walk-on, celebration moment), we’ll happily prepare it for you.
Yes — pretty much everything. We cover a wide range of genres, and most requests fall into categories such as:
Yes — every performance can be tailored to your event.
We adapt the flow, music style, pace and interaction based on your audience, schedule and atmosphere.
We can include special songs, themed moments or personalised shout-outs to make the performance truly unique.
We arrive early and take care of all setup and sound-check requirements.
The following is included as standard:
Sound and lighting is generally not provided for events in London — see Do you perform in London? below.
We control the volume carefully and can perform at anything from full party energy to a more intimate acoustic-style level.
Note: For events with strict volume limits or very small rooms, we can use an electronic drum kit to significantly reduce overall sound levels. We don’t typically use this setup — as the full acoustic kit sounds best — but it’s a great option when venues require lower volume.
Our standard performance is 3 × 45 minutes (135 minutes total), but we can adapt this to suit your schedule.
Breaks are kept upbeat with high-energy music to keep guests dancing and maintain the atmosphere.
If you'd prefer us to play a specific playlist during the breaks, just let us know.
Duelling Pianos: minimum 5.0m × 2.5m
Party Piano Band: minimum 3.5m × 2.5m
Pop-Up Piano Bar: minimum 2.0m × 2.0m

For events in London we generally do not supply a sound system or lighting due to restricted access, parking limitations and longer load-in times.
Sound is usually provided by the venue or arranged through an external AV company. We’re happy to help coordinate this if needed.
