Having booked Andrew before to play at a family gathering, he was an absolute must to play at our daughters wedding. Andrew played after the ceremony whilst we had drinks and canapés, and we received so many complimentary comments, with many completely overwhelmed at his performance. He conducts himself with such charm and professionalism and his choice of music for the event was perfect. We really can’t recommend him highly enough and would always book to have his presence at other family occasions.

We booked Andrew to play at our wedding right before Covid. A few months after Covid came and we were forced to move our wedding date. Communicating with Andrew through all this time was easy and stress free. Our wedding finally came on 03/07/2021 and Andrew performed beautifully at our wedding. He took the time to enquire on how we wanted our day to go and the music. I would definitely recommend Andrew and will definitely be working with him in the future. Andrew is humble, reliable and a great musician. Loved his entertainment at our wedding. Thank you for being such a big part of making our day a beautiful one.

Absolutely Amazing! Andrew is a true professional and a brilliant musician. All communication prior to the big event went very smoothly and Andrew was happy to accommodate my dad's taste in music as well as being willing to split his set in half on the night. What more can I say? Book him, you will not be disappointed. Not only is he an incredible player, his personality shines through, he talked to guests, was always smiling and it was a true pleasure to have him on the night. Since the evening many guests have requested his details which just goes to show how impressive he was. Thank you Andrew for bringing your energy, warmth and awesome music to a night we will never forget!!

I honestly don’t know where to start. We had a few phone calls and message exchanges with Andrew in the lead up to our wedding which were fantastic. From the first call, everything was made so easy and suggestions were made to us that made sense. On the actual day, it was a pleasure to meet Andrew. All of the timings were kept to perfection, the music choices were phenomenal, but most importantly, Andrew is an absolutely amazing person. He is so kind and friendly, and always had a smile on his face. He spent time talking to a few guests, whom by the way were complimenting him all night. I would recommend Andrew to anyone. Such a unique personality. I’m sure I may have missed out a few compliments but hopefully I have fitted the most important bits in! Thank you so much again Andrew, very much appreciated, and I’m so glad you also enjoyed the day too! Rickesh and Krishna x

What can I say, Andrew was amazing!! He played beautifully and it made my daughter’s wedding extra special. Also what a lovely guy, nothing was too much trouble. If you’re having a saxophonist for your event Andrew is your man.

Andrew was just wonderful. He played at our wedding during our drinks reception and people were really impressed by his natural talent at playing the saxophone. The songs were perfectly chosen to fit the vibe of the reception drinks and exactly how we imagined it. Andrew is also a lovely person, he came over to me before the wedding began to congratulate me, and to say thanks in advance as he knew we were unlikely to get to speak after. I really appreciated that! Next time I hope to see Andrew play at someone else's wedding so that I can spend more time listening to his beautiful set, not as the bride! Thanks once again!

What can we say... Andrew you truly we're a major part of our wedding from the aisle walk to the end of our wedding breakfast, you played absolutely beautifully. You were brilliant to work with agreeing to learn a new tune we wanted, and we loved the result. Our guests raved about you... So many tunes, so diverse for everyone to enjoy a bit of what they like. Thank you so much Andrew you were fabulous... The Josephs

It was a delight and pure blessing to have Andrew as part of our wedding day, he performed with grace and wowed our guests as well as ourselves. We are already thinking up another event that he can come and be a part of. Andrew thank you so much for helping us achieve what we envisioned. It was a perfect day and you performed everything so wonderfully, we were more than impressed! We hope to see you again in the future and pray for all the best for you going forward!! Andrew is a Must have. We love the sax and Andrew just delivered on everything we hoped for!!

Hyacinth Fraser (One Accord Reunion Concert) 8 May 2019
10/10

I'm honoured to give a review on behalf of my dear friend, Andrew. After 43 years, my group, One Accord Gospel Group, celebrated our reunion concert on Saturday 27th April, to raise funds for cancer charities. The event was SOLD OUT! THANKS to the INCREDIBLE talented Andrew, our guest saxonphonist, our concert was a huge success.

Andrew's playing received a standing ovation for his outstanding performance. He also accompanied and complimented our band of musicians when he played songs attributed to pioneers of Gospel music, such as Andrae Crouch, Daniebelle, etc.

Andrew is incredibly humble; his smile is contagious and you are immediately drawn to his warm personality. Andrew is a creative artist and a great team player. Thank you Andrew for gifting your music towards a good cause.

Heidi Balajadia (Mansfield Sings! Spring concert) 7 May 2019
10/10

We had the pleasure of having Andrew as our special guest instrumentalist at Mansfield Sings!' Spring concert. He serenaded us with a selection of easy listening, familar Jazz pieces, melting hearts all over the room. Heads were nodding and feet were tapping as our audience drank in every note. I loved every song, but my personal favourite was Mac the Knife! Andrew's sound system too provided an edge of professionalism, making us feel as if we were in a concert hall or studio, rather than the function room we hired. I was so pleased when Andrew agreed to collaborate with the choir for a couple of songs. His contribution inspired the singers, and I could feel their performance lift as he accompanied with joyful tones.
As somebody who also plays in a band with Andrew from time to time, I can also commend his musicianship and commitment to creating special, musical moments with others. I would definitely recommend Andrew, and would invite him again.

Thank you Andrew for giving us a magical wedding. Andrew was very professional, responded to my emails and calls in a timely manner, accommodated all my requests and gave me advice on how to approach my event. He was calm, reassuring and help calm my stress of the wedding. Andrew's music is exceptional, it set the ambience I desired for my wedding. We couldn't have asked for a more better experience, thank you soooo much Andrew for being a part of our day and hopefully more celebrations to come in the future. I wish you all the best with your new album. I'll be looking out for it.

Andrew!!!! Man, where do I start!!!! I have known Andrew since I was 14.. We started in the same band back in 2005/6 and he's always been a huge influence and a big brother to me. He's amazingly talented and gifted at his craft, even more a real gentleman, wise, honest, trustworthy , likeable and adorable to work with. I have learnt so much from him and he still continues to inspire me. I was such a huge honour and privilege when he accepted to perform at my wedding. He completely engaged the audience with just his saxophone and a backing track for no less than 40 minutes of good sound music. The entire hall was filled with amazement and delight by the delivery of his music. Andrew is really a great gift to the world and I am honoured to call you my friend & my brother. He's definitely worth having at your events, shows, functions etc...

Oh my goodness, where to begin. Andrew is such a delightful person, and his music is by far the best I have heard. I listened to many artists online before I chose Andrew, and the reason I did choose him was that he stood out over and above the competition. I had so many comments from my guests who thought he was fantastic. He plays such rich and soulful music with a passion, and I so wish I could have my party again and just watch and listen all over again. You should have no hesitation in booking Andrew - he gets 10 stars from me. Gaynor

We were lucky enough to have Andrew play at our wedding. What an amazing musician and human being! Andrew really made our day and we couldn’t have asked for a better musical contribution to this special occasion. Our guests were blown away by Andrew’s fantastic saxophone playing and he just radiated such positive and energetic vibes throughout the entire reception. We can’t express our gratitude enough!!

Booked as a surprise for my husbands 60th and was absolutely delighted. Andrew was very professional from first contact by email. He arrived early to do a sound check and then started playing on my husbands arrival and throughout the arrival of our guests. Everyone’s reaction was of sheer pleasure of listening to this very talented man, and it really made the evening. Big thank you Andrew, you will always be highly recommended.

We booked Andrew to play at our wedding just before Christmas. From our very first contact Andrew was extremely professional and was flexible and very helpful. I was able to pick my choice of music from a varied list he provided. On the day itself Andrew made a really good impression with our guests. He played prior to the ceremony and during the drinks reception. He was very well received. I would not hesitate you recommend Andrew... his performance was brilliant... thank you so much for making our day extra special.

Andrew's Saxophone playing was enjoyed by all who came to my London Art Exhibition. He created a great atmosphere and the exhibition wouldn't have been the same without him. I would highly recommend to anyone and will definitely be booking Andrew for future events.

Andrew was absolutely amazing! A lovely, polite and professional man who played extremely well. The room Andrew was playing in was quite small and so I asked for him to play 'background' music rather as the guest were relatively close - he listened and amended his set based on the room change. Many people complimented Andrew after the event and we would happily invite him to play again!

Ann Johnson (60th birthday party) 3 May 2017

Andrew is an amiable and very likeable guy . It was a relaxed family and friends event and Andrew's playing really set the scene.
He is extremely talented and his passion and versatile playing of the saxophone was very impressive. I would have no hesitation in recommending him for any event.

Thank you Andrew for bringing your charm and sweet songs of jazz to the delight of our guest and making our wedding day special by playing our favourite songs with passion. Your warm soulful mood set the bar high as the audience cheered and rose to their feet to dance. Loved your professional way and attention of playing to suit all age groups. Andrew you truly are a credit to your profession.

Andrew played his saxaphone my wedding reception.
All I did was give him a link from youtube, as it was a song from Bollywood.
I didnt even give him any notes for the song.
He blew everyone away on the day by playing that tune.
Now thats what I call true professionalism.
Thank you so much Andrew.
I will definitely recommend you to anyone that is looking for a saxophone player.
Thank you for making my day special.

Andrew played at my 50th birthday celebration and from the moment he blew his first note, the room was filled with soft, smooth Jazz- creating an atmosphere of mellowness. His style of playing complimented the mood of the event very well while adding a touch of class at the same time. His presentation and professionalism was outstanding - definitely one to consider if you're looking for that extra special ingredient to your event.

I have heard Andrew play the saxophone at many events, most recently at the Barbados independence gala dinner and dance in November 2015. The music he plays is always brilliant and entertaining. Great musician!

Andrew is an exemplary musician. He's skills set stretches way beyond that of a good saxophonist. He's personal life and Christian heritage (of which is very evident in his life today) contribute to his absolute professionalism and passion for persevering in perfecting his craft.
