Thankyou so much for making our night super special! You’re incredibly talented.. It’s hard to find someone who can get involved aswell as just playing, you danced and brang all the vibes we needed. You were amazing working alongside our Dj too, Will definately reach out for future partys. Once again, Thank-you.

Made my twins 18th party memorable, absolutely brilliant with the crowd. Plays to the vibe and a really nice guy! Thanks so much.

Michael settled into the university environment and played very well, everyone was very impressed! He was very happy to get involved and interact with everyone and we all had a great night.

Michael was amazing, and there was soooo much choice to choose from! It was smooth from the get go, from booking Michael to then all the communication etc.. All of our wedding guests and us really really enjoyed the music, we had so many people tell us how amazing it was and how it just set the tone for after our ceremony whilst having drinks outside listening to the music. I am soooo sooo glad I came across Michael and picked him to play at our wedding. Thank you so much! We highly recommend Michael! 5 stars! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️

We honestly cannot thank you enough for being such an incredible part of our wedding day. You were absolutely amazing, and we genuinely couldn't have wished for anyone better to bring the energy, atmosphere and entertainment that you did. You completely exceeded every expectation we had. Your talent, enthusiasm and ability to read the room and get everyone involved was just fantastic. You brought such an incredible vibe to the day, and the atmosphere you created was something truly special. You didn't just play music; you created moments, brought people together and made sure everyone was having the most amazing time. Seeing our guests enjoying themselves, dancing, laughing and getting completely caught up in the atmosphere was just brilliant, and you were such a huge part of that. We have had so many lovely comments about you, and we know your performance will be one of those things our guests remember and talk about for a long time. You added something so unique and unforgettable to our wedding, we are so grateful. Thank you for going above and beyond, for bringing so much energy and joy, and for helping make our celebrations everything we could have hoped for and more. There genuinely isn't anyone better we could have chosen, and we feel so lucky that you were part of our day.

The last song was the best my daughter favourite

Michael was great! He arrived early, brought such a fun energy and we had the best time. Would definitely recommend!

Michael was fantastic at our wedding. He brought such a great atmosphere and kept the dance floor busy!

Michael was amazing and played Ibiza chilled vibes!!Guests loved him too and really added a relaxed atmosphere to our special day!!! Xx

Michael was AMAZING!!!! I would highly recommend and would definitely have him play for us again. Thank you so much!!

Michael was great cannot recommend him enough. Everyone enjoyed it and made the wedding even more great. Really engaged with the crowd

Michael played beautifully with experience and completely read the room … played all my favorites and got everyone up and dancing .
Thankyou so very much for making my party such fun

Michael was absolutely brilliant for our wedding. We got in touch about a week before the wedding to go through everything. Without giving him a lot of information other than ‘cater for a range of ages and play chill songs people will know’ we couldn’t really give more details! He nailed that very vague brief and played us in for our requested entry music. Loads of our guests said it was a really nice touch having a saxophonist and that Michael brought a great atmosphere.

We honestly couldn’t recommend Michael enough! He was absolutely fantastic at our wedding and added such an amazing atmosphere to our day. Frankie and I loved having him there, and so many of our guests commented on how brilliant he was too. Michael was incredibly talented, professional and friendly, and his music was just perfect for our wedding. He really helped make the day feel extra special and gave us some lovely memories that we’ll always remember. Thank you so much, Michael, for being part of our wedding day, we’re so glad we chose you! We would 100% recommend him to anyone looking for a saxophonist for their wedding. Amy & Frankie

Michael was excellent and made my mother’s birthday extra special. The saxophone was wonderful, and Michael was very professional and easy to communicate with throughout the whole process!Thanks for a brilliant evening of live music. :)

Thank you for responding to my booking urgently. Your effort to learn a new song and deliver exceptional well in under 24hrs is commendable. If I did it again, I would defo book you.

I hired Michael for my 40th birthday. He was fantastic to deal with from start to finish. Guiding me through different music options and advising how the evening should flow to ensure the best night. Music was fantastic! My guests loved it. He was in the middle of the dance floor and got everyone up and dancing. Would highly recommend him!

Michael played the sax at a garden party we held at our house. I booked him after seeing him in action at another party. His playing was superb and he had people of all ages up and dancing. I had loads of positive feedback. Even those who were sitting rather than dancing said how much they enjoyed Michael's music. He is a very nice guy as well as a great musician and I highly recommend him. No need to pay more for a band!

We hired SaxoPhoney for a bridal shower lunch. Even though there were unforeseen issues with parking which meant his arrival time was delayed, he still made sure to play for the full time we had booked for. The performance was amazing quality and fit exactly with the vibe we wanted. I would definitely recommend!

ABSOLUTLEY brilliant. Brought all the entertainment and got the parrty on their feet :)

Michael was great, very entertaining and played so well!! All my guests loved it and told us how good Michael was!!

We booked Michael for our 30th. He was brilliant. Got all the guests in the mood and his set was perfect. He consulted us before the party to ensure we were happy with our set list. I’ll be honest we let Michael do it in the order he thought. He was brilliant and got everyone grooving and dancing. Will book again

Amazing to had for the day! Thank you so much

I booked Michael recently to play at my 50th birthday celebrations. He was brilliant. Very accommodating with my song choices and a change of venue. He arrived well ahead of time, and worked well with my Dj to ensure everything run smoothly. Everyone enjoyed it. I would highly recommend.

We chose Michael to play at our daughters 21st Birthday Party.He arrived on time and set up quickly after having already played at 2 previous functions on the same day. He contacted me a couple of days before the event to run over some things and to check that everything was going to run smoothly on the night. A very polite and professional saxophonist.He made our daughters evening that extra bit special as he was a surprise arriving as late as 9.45.As we also had a Dj the same evening, she wasn’t expecting the surprise visit from Michael to complete her evening.We all had an amazing evening and would highly recommend Michael to play at any event looking for that extra special touch.

We had our wedding on 24th April 26 and booked Michael to play during our drinks reception and he was brilliant from start to finish. The weather was lovely so everyone was outside enjoying the sunshine, and the music created the perfect atmosphere for the afternoon. So many of our guests commented on how good he was. We couldn’t have asked for a better addition to our wedding day. Highly recommended!

It was great to have him at my event couldn’t recommend more mid evening fantastic

Amazing! Hired Michael for my dad’s surprise 60th birthday and it was a great success, everyone was up on the dance floor and thoroughly enjoyed it! Thank you!

Michael was unbelievable!! He made our wedding everyone was up dancing. An extremely talented musician. We loved the Ibiza classics! If you want everyone up dancing hes your man!

I booked Michael to play for 2hrs for my girlfriend’s 40th birthday party at the Rocksalt. He was amazing and created an excellent atmosphere for everyone. Everyone had so much fun. Thank you Michael 🎷🕺

I recently had my 50th party with 60 friends. I wasn't sure about having a separate saxophonist with a DJ but liked the idea of the live music element.

Michael was really excellent and added real "lively sophistication" to the first couple of hours of the party whilst people were having drinks and dinner. He was widely praised by everyone. Thank you, Michael!

SaxoPhoney Michael played the saxophone at my mother’s wake and was absolutely wonderful. The music was tasteful, calming, and perfectly suited to the occasion. Many guests commented on how special the music was and how much it added to her do. We are very thankful and would highly recommend.

Michael played at our wedding, and from the very first conversation he was absolutely amazing. Not only is he an exceptionally talented saxophonist, but he genuinely took the time to understand us, our music tastes and the atmosphere we wanted to create on the night.

He was so warm, professional and responsive throughout and even called the week before the wedding to carefully plan the perfect set list and liaise with the venue DJ on our behalf (thank you!). He got even our most dancefloor-shy family and friends up and having fun, with so many of them commenting on how brilliant he was. We can’t thank you enough for making our evening extra-special!

Michael was super professional, his communication prior to the event was unmatched. He created a lovely atmosphere for our guests and played a variety of genres so there was something for everyone.

Thank you so much Michael for making our wedding a truly unforgettable experience. We had such a great time and you were great on the dance floor! Thanks for your great music it really went down a treat and all of our guests absolutely loved it!

We had the absolute pleasure of having Michael perform at our birthday celebration at home, and his music truly elevated the evening. From the very first note, he created an atmosphere of joy, elegance, and soulful energy that captivated everyone present. Michael’s mastery of the saxophone is remarkable. He was punctual, well-prepared, and seamlessly adapted to the flow of the party. His warm presence made guests feel at ease and added a touch of sophistication to the celebration.

Made everything so easy after the booking. Fantastic atmosphere when you started and really thankful for coming to our birthday/engagement party one of my favourite instruments. Would definitely recommend and book again thank you so much.

Michael was absolutely fantastic! He arrived right on time, played beautifully, and really set the perfect atmosphere for the evening. Communication was easy from start to finish, and the whole booking process was smooth and straightforward. Thank you for an amazing evening.

Fantastic 2 hours, sax was amazing, would not hesitate to book again

Michael was absolutely amazing - what a talent. We opted for Ibiza Style Sax and we were blown away. Firstly, Michael was so easy to communicate with and sent us all the relevant information and the songs he had listed to play, allowing us to pick specific ones or request that we avoid them. He also liaised with the DJ, which was one less job for us. Firstly, he entertained our guests during the canapés and drinks whilst we had our photos taken. Then he kicked off the evening on the dance floor and what a job he did… nearly every single person was on that dance floor - from 3 years old to 76 years old. I have had a number of messages after the wedding saying how fantastic he was and how it was one of the best weddings they’ve been to! Thank you for making our day that little bit more special Michael - you were great.

Michael kept in regular contact with us leading up to the day and discussing what type of music we wanted.

On the day he provided exactly the entertainment we wanted and really brought the energy to our wedding!

We couldn’t recommend him highly enough and thanks again for adding to our day!

Michael was incredible and so professional, he was really easy to work with and coordinate the event, he is very talented and really made the night, I highly recommend Michael, the songs he played everyone knew and he really worked the crowd, Thankyou Michael you are 5 star class act!

I would highly recommend Michael. He was very communicative before our event. He did an amazing job at catering for all the ages at our party and had everyone from the 3 year olds to the 60+ up and dancing. He made the evening very memorable. Thank you Michael

We had Michael perform for an hour at our wedding welcome drinks on 16th August 2025. He was a huge hit with our guests and us. Exactly what we wanted
Would highly recommend Michael to play at any celebration 🙌 🎷

Michael performed at our wedding reception for the cocktail hour. He was amazing and brought the energy and vibe we’d hoped for. We’ve had numerous complements about him and he set the tone perfectly for our guests to enjoy the rest of the reception. We would highly recommend his services to anyone wanting to elevate their wedding or any other party!

Communication in lead up to event was great. Turned up, did a great job, despite tackling some horrendous traffic, guests loved it. Thanks Michael

Hired Michael for our wedding reception and couldn’t have been happier. Great communication, played an amazing selection of songs and everyone enjoyed. Thank you so much!

Michael played for our wedding reception and he brought the most perfect vibes! He was on time and professional, great communication and catered for all music tastes on the day. Guests all commented on how great he was (and we agree!) - highly recommend!

We booked Michael for a hen party and had a great time. It was a surprise for the bride to be and she absolutely had the best night. Michael was great with communication and song requests also, would definitely recommend!

It was a dream to have a saxophonist at our wedding and Michael was amazing! Absolutely fab music, played everything we wanted and really got the party started! Very professional, great communication, arrived early too! I would highly recommend Michael to anyone considering! Thanks again :D

One word AMAZING!! from start to finish was brilliant. Really got the party started. Will definitely use again

Micheal played for our wedding on Friday and he was amazing. Everyone loved it and said it was an incredible touch on the dad. My dad wanted him to play for longer as he was so good. Lovely kind man. Would definitely recommend to family and friends.

Saxophoney Michael 🎷 what can I say he absolutely made my Ibiza 30th birthday garden party this Saturday just gone!!

Everyone enjoyed the entertainment, kept asking me where I found him, saying how good he was and what a vibe, he was absolutely amazing from start to finish from communication upon booking right the way through to the end of the evening on the day of the performance.

Also all the kids absolutely loved his vibe and enjoyed dancing around him playing! 🎷🎉

I cannot recommend him enough! Worth every penny 🎵🎷

Booked for party with good communications ahead of time. Prompt arrival and set-up. Good selection of music which got the dancing and party started! Everyone commented on how much they enjoyed the music afterwards, with all ages joining in the dancing during party.

Amazing!

Classic Sax was a great addition to our wedding reception - would highly recommend.

Michael was booked for my 40th Party in June. Communication before the event was really good, what he needed on the day and what playlist was available, which was a wide choice to choose from. The party went down a treat thanks to Michael and have had so many people saying how good he was and all the songs that were played were brilliant. 100% recommend Michael to make your event special. Thank you again, Nicole

Wow great music great entertainment for my 50th party . Michael was amazing will defo book again.

A great Experiance

What can I say? He was set up well ahead of time so we had no worries there. He played great tunes and clearly loves what he does. He really added to the atmosphere of our party.

Michael was absolutely great. He played so many great songs that took my partner and I back to when we first met. Top class player, performer and a genuinely lovely guy. We strongly recommend him to anybody looking to please their guests young and old.

Michael was a great addition to our wedding! He played one of my favourite tracks, Everlong by the Foo Fighters, on the saxophone while I walked down the aisle. It was such a great moment and made even more special by having live music at the ceremony. Everyone loved it and even the registrars commented how unusual it is. It was a fantastic start into the ceremony and got the energy up. Would be great as leaving the ceremony music too! I can't recommend enough hiring Michael for your wedding!

I am so honoured that Classic Sax played at my late husband's funeral..he did Richard proud.. The way Michael conveyed emotion through playing the pieces was incredible ..in the words of Charlie 'Bird' Parker "If you don't live it , it won't come out of your horn", meaning that music is your own experience, your thoughts , your wisdom..... Thank you so much Michael!

Classic Sax played for my 30th birthday and was fantastic. He made the whole process easy from start to finish, I asked if it was possible to learn a few extra songs to an already wide collection he had passed over and he did them with no problem. Highlight of the evening!

Michael played for my missus 40th. Played all the songs we love and 2 we requested. The guests were dancing and cheering him on. Recommended!

Michael was brilliant! The guests loved hearing him bring songs to life with his sax.

Thoroughly enjoyed Michael’s music! Really entertaining and was a hit with my party guests!

Michael was fab! He really brought songs to life with his sax and my friends loved him! He chose great songs and was always on the dance floor.

Michael was amazing and really added to a spectacular opening weekend for our pub. He was courteous and helpful throughout and gelled immediately with our resident DJ. And what a set list! Highly recommended.

I was really looking forward to having sax at my weddding and Michael really delivered! Everyone loved it! Gave my event a lovely atmosphere.

Michael sure knows how to get a party started! Great song selection and lovely to deal with.

Michael was a great addition to our party. He eased the crowed in perfectly as they arrived. Would recommended definitely have him again!

Superb saxophone performance … got the crowd dancing and even learnt some great Bollywood tracks ????

Absolute blast! Literally…. Michael was a true musical gent who entertained my family and friends (Ibiza style) in our garden for my sons 21st. If you want something different, something unique, then I would highly recommend Michael.

Michael was fantastic and very patient with us - it was a complicated arrangement due to lots of personal circumstances that almost made our event impossible but Michael kept in contact and helped to make it happen. He played a great set and created a wonderful event for our family. Would highly recommend and we hope to repeat the experience in the future.

We had a great communication from the start. Michael came right before 5pm. Lots of our members started to arrive around 6pm and that's when he started his gig. We all loved his performance and energy. Especially the last song he played " Barbie Girl" - we were all amazed and really enjoyed the time. We're very much looking forward to collaborate with him in future for many other events.

Michael was a wonderful addition to our daughter’s 21st birthday party. We chose jazz classics which perfectly set the mood for pre dinner drinks at an event for all ages. Great choice of classics and a can do attirude, we would hire Michael again tomorrow!

Michael performed the early afternoon slot at our Mini Festival- With a mixture of slow, chilled and more upbeat interpretations of popular pieces, Michael really gave a lovely chilled accompaniment to the Sunny afternoon. His skilled Musicianship was greatly appreciated by myself and the 100 plus gathered to enjoy the day’s entertainment. Michael arrived well in time for his slot and was smart and really was a true professional during his performance.
We Would definitely recommend him for an organised gathering, birthday party or wedding type of event and gets a 10/10 from us.
See you next time Michael!

Really talented saxophonist, made my party excellent!! definitely would recommend.

Very talented & professional Would recommend

Michael played beautifully and created just the right ambience for a drinks reception outside our church in challenging weather conditions!!!
He had wind and rain to contend with but took it all in his stride and we are enormously grateful to him!
I’d definitely recommend him.

Michael showcased good skill and versatility, offering a wonderful variety of songs that kept the atmosphere vibrant and engaging. However, there were moments when the music seemed a bit too quiet and there were occasional connection issues that limited his mobility. Despite these minor hiccups, all my guests enjoyed his music.

Very professional performance from start to finish. Michael interacted with the guests and set a good atmosphere for the party. Would highly recommend.

Michael performed at our Festival themed garden party. He was amazing. A great addition to the party. Very engaging with everybody too. Thank you😁

We recently booked Michael to play at our wedding & we weren’t disappointed, communication was great, we knew exactly what would happen & on the day the music was amazing, I don’t think the dance floor was empty!

A great addition to the party! So enjoyed by all
