what people are saying

“I highly recommend Jessica as a piano teacher, both my kids love learning piano and coming to classes.”

Amie - Parent of Leila

“I can highly recommend Jess as a piano teacher — she has a fantastic way of engaging with my son Hamish, who is autistic. Her approach is flexible and engaging, and she manages his attention extremely well and keeps him progressing.”

Joel - Parent of Hamish

about jess

i'm jess martyn - singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, spending my weekends playing your favourite songs in some of brisbane's favourite venues, and creating new music of my own during the in-between times.

with over a decade of experience teaching and performing live, i've learned a few things about crafting a unique sound, and pairing it with a performance energy that holds an audience's attention, whether in a rowdy pub, an up-market bar, or at the wedding of the season.

i draw on all of this experience across my performance and teaching work, giving my students and clients the benefit of my hard-won confidence. whether you need music for your venue or event, or you want to be the next ed sheeran booking gigs across town, i can help.
