About
Dustin Callahan: Refined Live Piano for Your Wedding Day
Piano has been part of my life since childhood, and for over 20 years I've had the honor of bringing that passion to weddings across Southern California. I studied music at Santa Clara University and earned my master's in composition from the University of Cincinnati — training that shapes everything I bring to the keys. My repertoire spans classical masterpieces, jazz standards, and contemporary favorites, so every part of your day, from ceremony to reception, feels tailored to your story and your style.

Ceremonies: I provide thoughtful musical accompaniment for both traditional and non-traditional ceremonies, including experience with Catholic wedding services.

Receptions: I carry the celebration through your reception, shaping the atmosphere whether you're after something lively or intimate.

Ensemble Options: For a fuller sound, I can bring in a violinist, cellist, or vocalist alongside solo piano — a great fit for larger or more elaborate celebrations.
Dedication to Quality

Reliable, Polished Sound: I bring a portable full-sized keyboard and PA system to every event, so the sound is clear and beautiful no matter the venue.
