The Piano Guys of YouTube fame have signed a record deal to release their next album with Sony Masterworks. Here’s the announcement and our five favorite covers from The Piano Guys.
The Piano Guys announced on their YouTube channel that they are partnering with Sony Masterworks to release their next album worldwide. They were told by Sony, “We love what you guys do, we want to take it to the next level, keep doing what you’re doing.” The album is available for pre-order on Amazon.
The actual announcement comes at about 4:35 in the video after footage of them asking people around Times Square questions about The Piano Guys. None of the people knew who they were, at least the people that made it into the video, but hopefully this record deal will create more awareness for the great music that they create.
Who exactly are The Piano Guys? The Piano Guys cover a variety of music. They’ve covered everything from Mozart to Adele. There are two on-screen musicians in the group – Jon Schmidt plays the piano while Steven Sharp Nelson plays the cello. There are three other equally important members. Paul Anderson, Tel Stewart, and Al van der Beek do the behind-the-scenes work that makes the great videos that The Piano Guys produce.
