Review Centre: Saxophonists

"Dave wowed our intimate gathering for my parent’s golden wedding anniversary celebrations at home on Sunday (19 Aug 2018) delivering so much more than the sonic experience. Somehow he managed to create an atmosphere that was warm, eloquent and inclusive kicking off the playlist with smooth Ibiza style chillout music, a seamless transition through classic Sting and Van Morrison ending on a rendition of a Tottenham chant my father has sung on the terraces all his life! So if you’re reading this I think you need to know that Dave ticks all the boxes; he does all the things you’d expect him to do and more; easy to book – tick, willingness to deliver a bespoke package – tick, great communication – tick, a courtesy call before the event to check timings and flexibility when working with other artists/performers – tick, tick – he is organised and in complete control with backup systems to boot. You’re in safe hands! He is a music maven; someone to listen to, watch and appreciate so much so that we’re turning this gathering into an annual event to have him play for us again and again!"

"I can't recommend Katie enough she was FANTASTIC all of our guests loved her. I always wanted a saxophonist but due to budget it was a last minute decision, Katie was quick to respond and organising details with her was so easy and stress free. It was defiantly one of my highlights of the wedding. Thank you so much Katie :) "

"I heard Steph play at a garden party. She was perfect for the occasion. Great repertoire played in a way that enhanced rather than undermined conversation. Highly recommended."

"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. The feedback from our guests has been incredible — we honestly can't thank you enough. You were fantastic! Thanks again for your message and your kind words. Love from Elliott and Megan"

"As a wedding DJ i have worked with many but can highly recommend Marshali Scott as the best all round and technically gifted saxophonist. Marshali can play songs that you wouldn't immediately have expected a saxophonist to play and the guests will love it!!!"

"What a fabulous evening. Kevin's playing is passionate , smooth and very listenable and danceable too. Everyone enjoyed his repertoire. He was good company and made the evening.You know you have a winner when guests keep asking for his details. We will have Kevin over to play for us again and were thoroughly delighted with his playing and gorgeous mellow sound."

"We booked Louie Sax to play a set at a Jazz Festival in a park. He was very professional and had everything he needed so that he could just hook-up to the sound system and play. Louie played the opening set at our first Jazz Festival in the park. There weren't many people in the park when he started but while he was playing people started to arrive, drawn by the amazing music he was playing. One couple were gardening about half a mile away and they downed tools to come and find the music. We had a large stage so that we could accommodate a big band orchestra later in the day. Louie was only one man but he produced a wonderful 'big' sound that got our Jazz Festival off to a great start! I can't recommend Louie Sax highly enough."

"Highly recommend Kit — he has a fantastic repertoire and is incredibly professional. He arrived with all his own equipment and adapted perfectly to the space. On top of that, it was an absolute pleasure to have him perform at my birthday. He was so kind, went above and beyond, and everyone genuinely enjoyed both his presence and his performance."

Thanks Naaki! It was a bit "cosy" in the space but I was happy to squeeze in and play for your lovely family and friends, who all clearly adore you. You were an excellent hostess and looked after me as well as your guests brilliantly. I'll carry happy memories of your party for a long time!
