Stan Lewis
Stan Lewis is a renowned keyboardist, composer, and touring musician, celebrated for his extensive work with high-profile artists such as Seal, Mary J. Blige, P. Diddy, 50 Cent, Patti LaBelle, and Kendrick Lamar. Born in California, Lewis was introduced to music at a young age, starting piano lessons at five and performing with legendary figures like Solomon Burke and Natalie Cole by the age of 14. His musical foundation was deeply influenced by his Pentecostal gospel church upbringing, his musically inclined parents, and his ability to play by ear. Lewis honed his skills by transcribing jazz chords and solos, dedicating eight hours a day to practice.

Lewis's inspirations include a diverse array of musicians and composers such as Chic Corea, Herbie Hancock, Oscar Peterson, and classical composers like Mozart and Beethoven. He blends these influences into his music, creating a unique sound. He studied at the Musicians Institute in Hollywood and is currently pursuing a Master's degree at Berklee College of Music in Boston.

His professional career took off in 1998, and since then, he has supported numerous international artists across various genres. Lewis has appeared on major television shows, including "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno," "Good Morning America," and "The Ellen DeGeneres Show." In addition to live performances, he has composed music for television and film, notably contributing to the Netflix film "Church the Movie."

As a Yamaha Artist, Lewis utilizes an array of Yamaha instruments, including the Montage 7 and 8, CP 76, CS Reface, and the C7 piano, to bring his musical visions to life.
