About / Biography

Bring the real Ibiza vibe to your event

Transport your guests to the White Isle with m-SAX - where golden-hour cocktails evolve into euphoric, hands-in-the-air dancefloor moments. Blending house and dance anthems, Café del Mar chill-out, smooth jazz, and timeless sax ballads, m-SAX curates a flowing soundtrack that builds energy naturally from day through to night.

This isn’t background music.

It’s an experience your guests feel.

The sound that started it all

m-SAX isn’t following a trend - he helped create it. As the original saxophonist at Café Mambo, Ibiza, he was there as sax over house music was born, before taking the sound back to the UK as it exploded onto the global stage. His career includes performances alongside Groove Armada, Judge Jules, Alex P, Brandon Block, The Temptations, Candi Staton, Percy Sledge, and Smokey Robinson.

Today, he is the band-leader saxophonist for “Judge Jules LIVE!”, a groundbreaking show that reinvents the biggest dance anthems of the last 30 years - with the legendary DJ himself on the decks.

Trusted on the world’s biggest stages

From the United Nations to the Royal Albert Hall, Ronnie Scott’s, The Jazz Café, Windsor Castle, and Buckingham Palace for the Queen, m-SAX has delivered performances at some of the most prestigious venues on the planet. This elite-level experience guarantees a slick, polished and instinctively timed performance that reads the room, lifts the energy, and leaves guests wanting more.

One artist. One booking. Total impact.

With premium add-on options including a professional DJ package, daytime jazz / live-lounge sets, extended performance options, and live bongos, m-SAX provides a seamless entertainment journey from start to finish. PA and lighting systems are available, making your booking effortless and stress-free.

Book m-SAX - and give your guests the Ibiza moment they’ll talk about long after the final track fades.

Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

Power Supply - up to 13 amps of electrical current which is a typical household circuit. I can run from a single plug socket and provide my own extension cables etc. I also need 2m x 2m space to perform in with my laptop/PA.


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

Yes, absolutely! I bring my own sax and radio mic to all bookings. If you don't have a DJ then I can also provide my own BOSE pa system which sounds (and looks) mint! I can bring lighting if required.


What information do you require about a venue?

Full address, any relevant access information and if they have any noise restrictions/sound limiters of any sort.


Can you provide a Spotify/DJ service before and between your sets?

Absolutely. This is a really popular request and I actually offer this service for free. If you'd like a DJ service via my PA after the final set, then I can also provide this. Please ask for a quote as the additional costs depend on the finish time.


What equipment do you bring?

I provide the following equipment as standard when performing solo:

• Saxophone
• BOSE S1Pro8 Speaker
• Radio microphone & receiver
• Laptop
• Table
• Extension reels





NOTE: If performing alongside a DJ then I won’t need most of this, but I always have it with me just in case.


What do you require at the venue?

There are a few ESSENTIAL things I’ll need at the event to make sure everything runs smoothly for us all.

Power Supply 
- just one plug socket will do.
Performance Area - for solo bookings, I’ll need at least 2M x 2M to set up my gear.
Wi-Fi - I run most of my music through Spotify, so a good Wi-Fi connection helps me take requests.
Free Parking - If your event is a city-centre hotel/venue with limited parking nearby, then please let me know.
Refreshments - soda water and coffee please


Can you play outside?

Yes, as long as it's not raining heavily.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever played at?

I've done so many that it's really hard to pick one but possibly the most memorable was playing to 12,000 people with Judge Jules. However, performing at Windsor Castle for the Queen was pretty good too :-)


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

Lovely Laura
Jamiroquai
Sandy Sax
Simply Red

My favourite song is probably It's Probably Me by Sting


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

I'm a professional saxophonist with years of experience performing Jazz, pop and dance/house music. I've performed with:

Groove Armada
Judge Jules
The Temptations
The Stylistics
Percy Sledge
Ben E. King
Candi Staton
Shed Seven
Smokey Robinson
Steven Tyler (Aerosmith)
Brandon Block
Alex P

I've also played at:

Cafe Mambo, Ibiza
The Royal Albert Hall
The Jazz Cafe, Camden
Ronnie Scott's
Montreux Jazz Festival
Windsor Castle
The United Nations, NYC
Buckingham Palace (for the Queen)


What's your favourite type of event to play at?

Weddings and parties because everyone's always up for a good time!

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

Load In & Set Up - usually 20 minutes is adequate but please allow for up to 45 minutes for more difficult locations (stairs, elevators etc).

Performance - 60 mins, 3 x 30 mins over 2 hours, or 4 x 30 mins over 3 hours. It’s better to spread out my performances for maximum impact.


Are you happy to perform outside?

Yes of course as long as it's not raining heavily.


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

Totally. Some clients love to pick my set and others prefer to let me do it. Either way I'm happy to oblige.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Professional.
Insane.
Fun.


How long are your sets?

I usually perform in 30 minute sets with short breaks for the best impact. However I'm happy to work in shorter/longer sets if you like - just let me know.


Can you play along to my DJ?

I perform with new DJs every week, so this isn’t an issue for me! But, to make sure everything runs as smoothly as possible, there are a few things I’d really recommend you do to avoid any hiccups on the night.



1. PLEASE NOTIFY YOUR DJ that you have booked a saxophonist
2. SEND ME YOUR DJ’s CONTACT DETAILS
3. SEND YOUR REQUESTS/PLAYLIST TO YOUR DJ AND ME

I always contact the DJ about a month before the event date to make all the necessary arrangements :-)


How long does it take to set up?

My equipment takes roughly 15 minutes to set up, so I tend to arrive 30 mins before my start time, or 15 minutes if I’m plugging straight into your DJ’s system.

I completely understand that event schedules can change - things can run early or late, and that’s totally fine! I’m happy to be flexible and can adjust my performance times by up to 30 minutes either way without any issue.

Some events, like surprise parties, may require me to be set up more than 30 minutes before my performance. If this wasn’t arranged when we first booked, and you need to add this later on, I’ll do my best to accommodate - provided I have enough notice.

If you decide to add an extra set or two, just let me know!


Can I choose the music?

Yes of course! I have lots of different playlists that I can send you if you need some ideas.
