  • The Piano Guys

    My kids absolutely love these videos and I have to admit that despite the cheesiness, they are very well made. I wonder where they get their funding and what it takes to make some of these.

    We know Jon Schmidt (piano) and Steve Nelson (cello). They are both great guys and very talented. My kids love the videos as well. I'm not sure where their funding comes from. Jon has been playing piano professionally since college so I would suspect he has some contacts.

      We are John Schmidt fans. This one was a youtube hit:

      which I am sure had an impact on music and concert sales. I suspect he is trying to keep the buzz going with these videos.

                Wow, that one really is great. I also like the jedi-mind tricks at the end.

                    They did a Christmas song on the church New Testament film set. I think it sounds nice.

                            They are coming to Texas (Dallas and Houston) to do a concert. The one in Houston is on my anniversary. I'm getting tickets as it should be a fun concert.

                              Schmidt and Nelson are Highland High guys. good folk. KSL did a little bio on these guys a few weeks ago which covered all of the people involved, the financial story, etc. Interesting watch.
