When Katy’s not rocking private events, you can catch her at some of the famed piano bars of Chicago like Zebra Lounge, Grapes and Grains, or her residency at Barrel Cheese and Wine. She occasionally pops up at piano bars across the US including Ivory Room in Madison, WI and Mojo’s in Grand Rapids, MI.

Katy on Keys also produces her own shows. These shows feature a lively mix of Drag Show Cabarets, engaging music game nights, fun-filled Music Bingo sessions, and Katy on Keys for a Cause fundraising shows.
