We used Tom for our Summer Fete at our Care Home. He was professional, well dressed and played beautifully. It was a really nice relaxing wind down to our summer fete.

Tom was fantastic, easy booking info, and learnt all the songs we requested. He was well presented and really helped make our special day that extra bit more special.

We approached Tom with fairly short notice and with an unconventional booking (playing unaccompanied on Brighton beach!) and Tom was swift and accommodating of both of these. He was super easy to deal with and really brought an extra something to the event, so much so that once he had finished his pre arranged set, he happily stayed and played for another hour following a quick whip round!

I couldn’t recommend Tom highly enough!

Tom played for us at our private party in the garden. It was a rearranged date and the weather wasn’t kind, but nothing was too much trouble for him. He played superbly and was charming and adaptable, we highly recommend him. Thank you Tom.

I wanted to surprise my husband with a saxophonist at our wedding, and Tom was the perfect man for the job! He kept the whole thing a surprise and joined our wedding to play us down the aisle which was truly magical. He then played for our guests during the canapés, which everyone really enjoyed. He was very progressional with all correspondence, arrived promptly and was so kind playing all of our requests. Thank you Tom!

I cannot recommend Tom highly enough, whatever your budget, do give him a call as he will do his best to work his magic and come up with something to suit you. He is a phenomenal musician and is in touch when he says he will be, which when planning a wedding is one less thing to worry about - the ultimate professional.

At extremely short notice Thomas rearranged prior engagements to accommodate our request. He was a consummate professional who read the venue and atmosphere perfectly, adapting his performance to match the event ~ he made the evening a huge success. Thomas' choice of music and undoubted talent saw him far exceed my pretty high expectations of him. I would without any hesitation give him the highest recommendation to anyone seeking the beautiful sound and atmosphere of the saxophone at any event. You won't be disappointed I promise.

I honestly could recommend Tom enough! We were very lucky to find him to play at our wedding. From walking down the aisle to the drinks reception, Tom was literally perfect. I had so many guests come up to me and comment how blown away they were. Tom Very kindly learnt a song for us to walk down the aisle to which was magical.
Tom, thank you SO SO much from us both!!!

Tom did a fantastic job at keeping the mood of our wedding upbeat and happy. He played for about an hour outside, at our wedding reception. The guests were singing along and dancing to some of his well known songs! He was professional and punctual, emailing the day before to check that everything was ok and to reassure us that he would be attending (not that we were worried)

We would 100% recommend him and will no doubt book him again for another event!

Thanks again Tom,
Mrs and Mrs Jones

Tom played at a summer party in our garden, providing an excellent accompaniment for drinks and canapes as the sun went down. It was a 21st, 30th and 60th birthday celebration for our family, with guests of mixed ages, and his playing set the perfect atmosphere for the rest of the party. He an amazing player, and very professional and prompt in his communications, so it was very easy to organise the booking and arrange what we wanted. His playlist is extensive and eclectic!

I contacted Tom to enquire about a band for my wedding following a recommendation from a friend. As with all weddings we had a budget we were trying to stick to & Tom was great, coming up with an alternative to his usual band & pulling together a group of his ex music students who were to put it mildly fantastic.
The music was great, the band were good sports allowing everyone to get involved & me to join them on ‘stage’ on numerous occasions throughout the night. A really talented group of young men who I would highly recommend. Everyone commented on how good they were and let’s be honest live music at a wedding is awesome.
I cannot recommend Tom highly enough, whatever your budget, do give him a call as he will do his best to work his magic and come up with something to suit you, he is a phenomenal musician and is in touch when he says he will be, which when planning a wedding is one less thing to worry about - the ultimate professional. Thank you again Tom & the guys for an incredible evening

Tom provided music for our wedding service and reception and we would highly recommend him. We asked for a specific song to be played while we were signing the marriage register which he played beuatifully, and when the signing over-ran, he choose some further songs to play which were a perfect fit and sounded beautiful in the church.

During our drinks reception Tom played a selection of tunes that created such a wonderful atmosphere - so many of our guests commented on how talented he was a how much it added to the occasion. He was extremely professional and very well organised - he arrived early to set-up and to ensure everything ran smoothly and did just what we had asked for.

As well as providing a high quality of music Tom was really helpful and friendly to have around, which meant a lot to us on our special day.

We would certainly recommend Tom without any hesitation for any special event.

Thomas came to play at our garden party and was just superb. It rained when he arrived and he coped with the last minute change of not being able to go outside brilliantly. The rain then stopped and he moved all his equipment outside to where we had originally planned for him to play, without any problem. His music was just what we had in mind when we booked him, and set the occasion off just as we wanted. He is a great musician and a very amenable professional to work with. I would recommend him without hesitation.

Thomas came and played the Saxophone for my Fathers surprise 80th birthday which we held at restaurant on a Sunday lunchtime. Nothing was too much trouble for Thomas, he did everything we asked of him. He walked in playing 'Summertime' my Fathers favorite, absolutely amazing. He really made the party extra special for us all.
I would recommend Thomas to anyone, such a nice guy who play's the Saxophone so well and just wants to make the event very special.
Thank you Thomas, we will certainly be booking you again!
Tina Carter.
