If you’re ever feeling down and out, The Piano Guys have a way of lifting spirits. Their imaginative videos are a mixture of beautiful music and settings that give the group its uniqueness.

“The Piano Guys” is made up of four members that help bring it all to life.

According to their website, after forming, the group found their inspirations from “family, God, nature, classical composers and others…”
