Add a touch of class to your event with veteran saxophonist Obie Hughes. A former Disneyland entertainer who is always dressed to impress, performing songs of the past you know and love: 1930s/40s Jazz Blues, 1950s/60s love songs, 1970s/80s pop & rock
(or any of those styles exclusively.)
This music is fitting for any occasion, all age groups and all venues: corporate functions, clubhouses, weddings, private parties, bars & restaurants, wineries, casinos, fairs, festivals and hotel lounges. Live solo saxophone played along to pre-recorded musical accompaniment.
See the “What to expect” section for more info. and song list.
Thank you for being flexible and going with us to 2 different locations when the first one did not work out. Everything came out perfect and the saxophone added the extra touch to our proposal. Thank you!

Response from Obie Hughes:
Thank you for having me. It was an honor to be a part of your special day !
Obie performed at our wedding. He communicated prior to the wedding, following up several times.
He catered to our song list as much as possible, but honestly most of his music was exactly what we liked.
He was on time, actually he was over an hour early.
Obie was very kind and professional, he interacted with our guests in between sets.
All of our guests gave positive feedback about Obies professional, and wonderful personality.
Both my husband and I would highly recommend him.
Thank you Obie for making our day more special.
Florame and Rich.♥️

Obie was a hit! We used him for a VIP event at one of our upscale apartment communities and the residents absolutely adored him. He arrived early with a fun setup to stage the space and was always quick with any communication leading up to the event. Will absolutely use him again. 10/10
Price Range: $200 and up

Upon arrival: Expect an on time arrival. Discrete set up and sound check. Professional but easy going attitude. Always dressed to impress unless otherwise informal attire is requested.
Performance: Live Saxophone played along with pre-recorded musical accompaniment. Music is amplified with a small PA sound system generally at low volume for small to medium sized rooms or courtyards (2-150 guests). Acoustic performance also available without sound system for intimate settings.
Note: . What I do has a more old school classic vibe performance wise, it’s entertaining but I don’t do a lot of dancing or jumping around. I am a bit more I appreciate your consideration.
