About Mikaela Kahn - Vocalist & Pianist

Mikaela Kahn

Pianist/Vocalist

Music is my passion and I truly love providing the soundtrack for life's most special moments. I moved to Austin six years ago to be a part of the incredible live music scene. I'm obsessed with everything about Austin (I mean, who can live without breakfast tacos?), and I absolutely LOVE what I do. I've been a full-time musician for nearly 10 years and have performed at 200+ weddings and countless events. My two most requested packages are solo (piano + vocals), or duo (piano + vocals + guitar). I’ve seen it all and I promise you can trust me to make your wedding music memorable, beautiful, and fun!

    ABSOLUTE MUST HAVE

    If I could give a million stars I would. Mikaela and her sweet husband, plus an incredibly talented pedal steel player, CRUSHED our ceremony. As soon as I heard them start to play while I was hiding away before I walked down the aisle I was crying. You can tell that they absolutely just love what they do and I am forever grateful for how special they made our ceremony. Everyone was coming up to me throughout the night to say just how spectacular they were playing!!! On top of that, Mikaela was an ABSOLUTE GEM to work with. She’s kind, listens, and is just the type of person you know you’d be friends with. I’m so glad I found her and enjoyed every second of working together. Again, HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend. No one better!!!!!!

    Mikaela is AMAZING!

    I've had the honor of working with Mikaela on a few events, and she blows me away every time! She is the kindest human to work with, and she sings like an angel! A must-hire for your wedding for sure!

    My go-to recommendation!

    Mikaela is the definition of professionalism, talent, and class. I have her 1st on my list to recommend to couples looking for ceremony music, cocktail hour, she even curates relaxing and romantic house concerts. A sweetheart to work with and the best female vocalist in Austin and beyond!


I like to arrive very early with time to spare! Normally I will arrive an hour and a half to two hours before my start time to get everything set, do a soundcheck, and make sure things are running smoothly.
Absolutely, I love learning new songs! A fee applies to songs that I don't know and would have to learn completely from scratch. I have an extensive repertoire with 300+ songs, but there are always more that just haven't made it onto the list. If you have a question about a song just ask! There's a good chance I know it already. :)
I always dress up for the day and love to coordinate with your color palette so everything feels cohesive and elevated.
Yes all of the above! My specialty is live music for wedding ceremonies, cocktail hours, dinner & first dance music. I also offer full night packages for intimate celebrations where we take care of all music and sound needs for the entire evening.
Yes, I have classical and contemporary religious music in my repertoire. Let me know if you have questions about specific songs!
Yes, I offer full sound support as an optional add-on. This can include a professional speaker system, 1 discreet lapel mic for your officiant, and 1 wireless handheld mic for ceremony readings, vows, toasts and any other special moments.
I love to travel! Anywhere within Austin limits is included in my pricing. To travel within driving distance outside Austin I charge a fee of $1/mile (round trip). Pricing varies for out of state and destination weddings depending on date, location, etc.
My style is acoustic, romantic, and refined. I can play a wide range of genres—from modern pop to timeless jazz and country—always with a warm, heartfelt touch. I love breathing new life into classic and contemporary love songs, creating a sound that feels both personal and intentional.
I’ve been a full-time musician for over 13 years and have played at 1,000+ weddings and events. I've truly seen (and played) it all! I use my years of experience to make sure everything runs smoothly and is timed perfectly for your ceremony and beyond. I know how to both stand out and blend in when needed, and love creating a beautiful atmosphere for you to shine, and for your guests to remember for a lifetime.
