Performing with jazz group The Thirteen outside of My Girlfriend's Wardrobe Filling in on bass with a local band on New Year's Eve in Dillsburg, PA Playing guitar with the loop pedal for First Friday in York, PA (the little guy towards the right) First and foremost, I'm a pianist. However, that's a pretty large umbrella for the musical services I can provide. I love to entertain as a jazz pianist, spanning anywhere from Thelonious Monk to Herbie Hancock to Bill Evans; I also write original jazz pieces that have a bit more of a modern/hip-hop flavor, similar to the Fender Rhodes-inspired jazz fusion of the 70's.

I am also proficient in creating a wall of sound using a loop pedal. Genres I cover from that base include psychedelic rock, ethereal ambient, or basically whatever else you might request.

If you have any other questions, or have a specific sound/atmosphere you would like for your event, feel free to get in touch! Be the first to review Shawn Korkie

As a person of many instruments and genre, there really is no one thing that is similar between each of my performances. Basically, I can provide whatever sort of sound or vibe you would like, whether you are interested in relaxing jazz, modern jazz, ambient rock, or virtually anything else.

I come fully prepared with all instruments, amplification, and resulting jargon necessary for me to perform. However, if you already have a designated PA system or other means of broadcast, I have no problems with adjusting my gear to fit your vision.
