🏆 Winner – Phoenix Magazine’s Best of the Valley 2025 Award!
I’m honored to share that I have been named Phoenix Magazine’s Best of the Valley 2025 in the Instrument Repair category! A heartfelt thank-you to all my wonderful clients who voted and trusted me with their pianos—this recognition is truly because of you.
Hi, I’m Kevin King, Award-Winning Piano Tuner
I’m a former engineer (Penn State) who traded the corporate world for my true passion—bringing pianos to life. In 2011, I trained in Los Angeles under Deke Erdmann, the former piano tuner for the LA Philharmonic Orchestra, gaining a deep respect for the craft and an ear for perfection. That experience ignited my love for pianos and the intricate art of tuning.
As a classically trained pianist and violinist—and guitarist on both electric and acoustic—I understand music from both a performer’s and a technician’s perspective. I’m proud to serve as the official piano tuner for the Tempe Elementary School District, and I regularly tune for churches, concert halls, and venues across the Valley.
Whether I’m preparing a Steinway grand for the concert stage or fine-tuning a cherished family upright at home, I bring the same precision, care, and musical sensitivity to every instrument I touch. My goal is simple: to make your piano sound its absolute best—so every note sings.
Your piano deserves expert attention. Let’s make it shine. 🎹

Kevin was on time, helped remind me of a few things I should do to care for my piano. He was a pleasure to have around, and I loved hearing him play as he finished up. His website is very convenient for scheduling and rescheduling appointments.

May 2, 2024Had Kevin over yesterday to do a tuning and pitch raise along with a standard cleaning. It had been four years since my last tuning so it needed to be pitch raised and a very glad I did. I don’t play the piano, but my wife does and she was very appreciative that we finally got it tuned. I love piano music and Kevin did an awesome job And as an extra bonus, he also plays any plays very very well. Overall, he was here for about 3 1/2 hours in concentrated on getting the perfect pitch. From now on, I’m going to have him out every year to make sure we keep up with it.he said our Weber baby grand was in great shape and thought it was much newer than it was. My wife is hoping she can get the grandkids interested in taking some lessons. Thank you, Kevin. See you in about 359 days.

April 2, 2024Kevin came over and tuned, pitch raised, and cleaned my 80+ year old piano. I honestly thought the piano had become a lost cause (I had inherited it) but it plays beautifully now. Thank you, Kevin! You gave my piano a new life!

September 2, 2023It’s like a new piano was wheeled into my living room. About after an eon of cringing keys, it was time for a tune. Kevin, you transformed my Kawai! I even dusted off some old scores last night and started tapping the keys. Thank you for the life you brought back into my quiet house! It sounds fresh, clear, and ready to play.
