About Me

Michael Arrom is a Cuban-American keyboardist and producer whose playing has been described by multi-Grammy winner Steve Vai as "stunning" and "phenomenal". By the age of 18, he had accompanied Keith Urban on live network television and toured the world on Steve Vai's, "Story of Light" tour.    


Michael set out from his New Jersey roots to advance his studies at the University of Southern California's distinguished Popular Music Program. While at USC, he studied piano with the incomparable Patrice Rushen ("Forget Me Nots"). Michael graduated in 2017 having earned multiple top honors. Michael was subsequently invited to join USC’s faculty, where he teaches the Piano Proficiency course for music majors and maintains a private keyboard teaching studio.  


In addition to being a university music educator, Michael is regularly in demand as keyboardist for major label pop artists, such as Sofia Carson and Noah Cyrus. His varied portfolio of professional projects also includes composing, arranging, production, music direction, sound design, live track construction, session work, and score transcription.  


Michael owes a huge debt of gratitude to the artists who have been his musical inspiration. He credits his piano chops to years of deep classical training from his Juilliard-graduate teacher, Michelle Chen-Kuo. As a young man, he was also fortunate to have found a life-long mentor in David Rosenthal (Billy Joel, Enrique Iglesias, Rainbow). While at USC, Michael learned from resident and visiting masters including Paul Jackson, Jr, Ndugu Chancler, Michael Boddicker, Melissa Manchester, Smokey Robinson, John Mayer, John Fogerty, Mike Love, Chaka Khan, Bill Withers, and Giorgio Moroder, just to name a few.
