Nate Hance - Not Your Average Pianist

Nate Hance is a pianist and composer in Saint Paul, MN who loves to play a huge variety of genres, from classical to jazz, ragtime to pop and everything in between.

He plays over 300 gigs each year for numerous audiences around the Twin Cities and greater Minnesota, but his favorites remain providing a few moments of respite for stressed travelers at the MSP Airport and being a bright spot in the days of memory care, nursing home and assisted living residents.

In addition, Nate loves making creative song arrangements and mashups for YouTube, TikTok and Instagram. You will find everything from Happy Birthday played as a tango to Harry Styles’ “As It Was” played as a ragtime piece. You can find sheet music for his original music and arrangements at www.NateHance.com/sheetmusic and www.MusicNotes.com.

I have been creating dozens of Canon in D wedding processional mashups for brides and grooms, so it's a joy to record these and share them with you all. This may be my favorite, Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody mashed with Pachelbel's Canon in D (well, Bb for this one...)

Is this some kind of cruel joke? Placing a hungry musician right next to a closed Waffle Wednesday bar? There I was, giving it my all for an hour performance, inhaling the sweet fragrances of waffles that were no more 😥

Happy Birthday, Prince. Even though he didn't celebrate his birthday in his final decades, I thought I'd celebrate his legacy with a relaxing, meditative version of Raspberry Beret. #prince #happybirthday #raspberryberet
