Honestly, I don’t even have the words to describe how amazing Kevin was. From being incredibly flexible with last-minute timing changes to offering a huge range of songs for us to choose from — and even suggesting songs that perfectly matched our theme — Kevin truly went above and beyond.
He made our day so special. He was a surprise act for our guests, and he helped keep it a complete secret by setting up outside the area and then walking in with an absolutely banging performance. The reaction from everyone was priceless.
On top of all that, Kevin is an outstanding performer. His musical talent is truly next level, and the energy he brought was unforgettable. Our guests absolutely loved him ❤️ I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend Kevin for any event.

Hi kevin,
Apologies for the late reply — it's been an absolute whirlwind of a day!
It's so lovely to hear your thoughts about the venue; it really is a spectacular place and we feel so lucky to have celebrated there.
Ozzy is such a big part of our family, and we were so grateful he could be involved in such a special way. We'll treasure those moments and videos forever.
Thank you for being a part of the magic.

I wanted to book a saxophonist for my daughters wedding as a surprise for the evening as she has always loved this music. We couldn't have asked for anyone better. Communication was great, from booking to the playing at the wedding reception. Kevin kept in constant touch, he arrived on time, payment was so easy to do. He played to the crowd and knew exactly what to play to keep everyone dancing, he made my daughters wedding evening even more perfect, she was in awe listening to him and said he was amazing. I'm so pleased we booked Kevin and would recommend to anyone. Once again Kevin your playing was fantastic and thankyou for making my daughters wedding night perfect.

I decided last minute that I would like live music at my Mum’s surprise big birthday afternoon tea- I really wanted to make it special. I reached out to Kevin- and he didn’t disappoint!

Communication before the day was excellent - I felt very reassured he would attend and provide the music I had in mind.

On the day, Kevin arrived in good time and was friendly and professional.

Kevin played a range of music brilliantly and really added such great vibes to the party.
He instinctively knew when to play background music and when to put on a bit of a show!
Lots of people have commented on how great he was.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Kevin.

10/10

Where do I begin ? I messaged kevin about by wife’s birthday party and he replied almost instantly. We agreed a price the he asked for any special requests. My wife is a huge Billy Ocean fan so I asked if he could play that which he did brilliantly, my next request was fro Penny Lover by Lionel Richie as it was the first song we danced to, again great. Also on his rest period he played Billy Ocean songs on his P A. He was brilliant the whole time he was here having a laugh and a joke with our guests. First party after lockdown and Kevin made it a great party. My love of the saxophone never stops. All in all a great saxophonist and a lovely man. If you want a saxophonist book Kevin ?????? I don’t normally leave reviews but had to for kevin. He’s definitely the man to have.

An excellent musician. Kevin played the saxaphone for us for the better part of three hours. His choice of music and performance created a superb background to quite a prestigious event. I would thoroughly recommend him to anyone requiring this type of music. We thought his fee was very reasonable and well deserved.

Kevin played at our wedding in May 2018 at a beautiful county house in Ashbourne and the ceremony was in a secret garden. Kevin played before the ceremony, during and throughout drinks reception and wedding breakfast. If you like the saxophone then he is a must!
We met with him months before and chose a playlist. He paid attention to every detail , keeping regular contact with us. The sound of the sax drifting through the gardens with the sun shining down was so moving and made our day special. We had so many compliments and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this talented professional guy.

We booked Kevin a while before our wedding day he was one of the first things we booked after seeing him at a wedding faye at Peak Edge hotel. We booked him straight away as he sounded great & knew it would be perfect for our wedding.
Kevin kept in contact all the way through until our wedding we gave him a playlist of the songs we liked & had no problem playing all of them.
On the 12th May we got married at Bagden Hall luckily the sun was shining & Kevin played outside during our drinks reception. It was perfect our guests loved listening to the saxophone whilst relaxing and enjoying there drinks.
We would definitely recommend Kevin.
Thanks again
