October 7, 2026Fantastic musician & great person!!
Darryl was secured late in our wedding process to pair with two violinist we had already booked previously. The bride loves music and we decided we wanted to ADD in a sax player for moments in the ceremony and also for cocktail hour. We were honestly a little nervous about working through the logistics late in the game. WOW! It turned out even better than imagined … Darryl is not only a TOP NOTCH musician, he’s an even better person. He was willing to work through logistics with our violinist collaborating on songs together and working through the details of letting both “shine” in their moments. He learned new music, collaborated with the violinist and was willing to work with us on the logistics that allowed everything to go smoothly without issue… and all with a smile and gracious personality! We even had to pivot locations due to weather and everything was fabulous! Not only is Darryl professional & talented musicians but his flexibility, positivity & gracious attitude is in my mind what makes him TOP TIER! What a pleasure it was & we were blessed to have him. 💕

We hired Darryl for our corporate event and he was amazing. Everyone was complimenting how great the music was all night long! He was easy to get in touch with, he came totally prepared and made the entire setup seamless. We loved Darryl so much we are looking to hopefully hire him for more of our events! Look no further and book him! Trust me!

September 14, 2026The Best Sax Player
I cannot say enough amazing things about Darryl! We hired him for our company’s National Conference welcome cocktail reception, and he was an absolute HIT. He completely understood the atmosphere we were trying to create and brought the perfect energy—classy, fun, engaging, and incredibly talented. Our team is still talking about him days later, which says everything! He truly elevated the entire evening and was one of the highlights of our conference. Beyond being an amazing musician, he was professional, easy to work with, and made the whole experience seamless.
If you are considering booking him, DO IT! We could not have been happier and would book him again in a heartbeat. Thank you for helping make our Savannah evening so memorable! 🎷✨

What to expect
You will experience a true professional, who will take the time to make sure your event is everything you want. I believe communication is the best way to ensure a smooth and pleasant experience. Your event is the most important thing to you, and so, I do my best to make sure that I’m flexible to any changes that may occur. Here’s a recent write up for The Greater Pooler Chamber:
Having had the pleasure of working with Deesaxplayer at a recent event, I can attest to the outstanding musical experience he provides. Not only did he deliver stellar performances with great skill and artistry, but his punctuality and responsiveness to the event's flow stood out remarkably. His ability to discern just the right moments to start playing and when to gracefully withdraw added a dynamic layer to the event, seamlessly blending his performance with the unfolding of the evening.
Deesaxplayer's professionalism extends beyond his musical talent. Prior to the event, he was very communicative, making sure to understand the nature of the event, the audience, and our expectations. He took instructions with ease and offered valuable insights on how to best incorporate his performance into the overall event schedule, which was immensely helpful in planning a well-orchestrated evening.
Additionally, Deesaxplayer was very informative about what he needed in terms of space and technical setup, ensuring there were no last-minute surprises. His self-sufficiency and attention to detail allowed us to focus on other aspects of the event, confident in the knowledge that the musical element was in highly capable hands.
In conclusion, Deesaxplayer is a superb musician who brings more than just music to an event; he adds an element of smooth professionalism and a keen sense of audience engagement. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for an exceptional saxophone player who is easy to work with and is sure to elevate any event he is a part of.
