About Scott “The Piano Guy” Houston:
Scott “The Piano Guy” Houston says he can teach anyone how to play piano like a professional in a matter of hours - not years!

In 2003, Houston began showing public television viewers how to “play piano
in a flash” through his wildly successful pledge special of the same name.
Seen by millions of viewers nationwide since debuting in March 2003, Play
Piano In A Flash has been a terrific fundraising vehicle for stations
carrying the program. Among the highest-grossing pledge specials in public
television history, stations to date have raised more than $14 million.

The Piano Guy with Scott Houston weekly television series is now in its third year airing on public television stations. The series covers over 90% of the TV households in the country on a weekly basis. Shot in high definition, the show continues to delight, inform and entertain thousands of viewers nationwide. Brand new Season 7 episodes will be released in March of 2007. Currently sponsored by Pearl River, Roland, NAMM and Pianobench.com, The Piano Guy show has also been supported by Steinway, Yamaha, QRS, BOSE, and The American Music Conference in the recent past.

A highly sought-after motivational speaker, Houston has lectured widely throughout the United States and Canada at nearly 150 colleges, universities and public television stations over the last ten years. More than 15,000 people have attended Houston’s workshops, many of whom have realized their life-long musical dream of having fun playing their favorite tunes on the piano. Aimed at non-accomplished musicians, Houston’s highly comedic, yet extremely educational look at playing the piano is a hit with attendees.

A popular teacher who offers several seminars each year, Houston has also taken the publishing world by storm. Inspiring and humorous, Houston’s book, Play Piano In A Flash (Hyperion, $12.95, ISBN 1-4013-0766-3), provides readers with a comprehensive guide to learning the fundamentals of piano while forcing them to have fun along the way. Originally self-published by Houston, the book now has more than 250,000 copies in print. Play Piano In A Flash for Kids (Hyperion, $12.95, ISBN 1-4013-0863-5) was released in 2006, and his newest book, The Next Step, Moving Forward With A Creative Style Approach To Playing Piano or Keyboard has just been released! Scott also writes a monthly column for Making Music, and has been featured in Indianapolis Monthly, Ohio Monthly and Men’s Health magazine.

Numerous visits on Good Morning America, PBS and Breakfast Television have made Scott a familiar face on television. Some of Scott’s on-demand videos are featured on Google Video, Comcast Cable’s On Demand service, Akimbo’s Internet video network, TotalVid, YouTube, and MySpace.

Houston is an experienced music professional with more than 20 years in the business. A trained percussionist, Houston studied jazz at the Indiana University School of Music. Houston then spent five years as president of a music publishing business, and played keyboards and percussion in rock, funk and jazz ensembles. He began exploring effective means to teach adult, non-musicians how to simply have fun playing piano in 1997.
