January 16, 2024Exceptional Saxophonist!
I had the pleasure of experiencing Eric Giles's outstanding performance as a saxophonist at the 2024 Midyear Meeting of the State Bar of Georgia, and I am compelled to share my utmost appreciation for his exceptional talent.
Eric's musical prowess added a remarkable touch to the event, elevating the atmosphere and leaving a lasting impression on everyone present. His skillful and soulful saxophone melodies resonated beautifully, creating a delightful ambiance that perfectly complemented the occasion.
Not only did Eric showcase incredible musical abilities, but his professionalism and attention to detail were also evident throughout the performance. He seamlessly tailored his repertoire to suit the event's tone and engaged 2 sets of audiences with different demographics with a captivating blend of skill and artistry.
I highly commend Eric Giles for contributing to the success of the Midyear Meeting. His musical expertise and charismatic performance undoubtedly enhanced the overall experience, making it a memorable and enjoyable event for all attendees.
If you're looking for a talented saxophonist who can bring both skill and passion to your event, I wholeheartedly recommend Eric Giles. Thank you, Eric, for adding a touch of musical magic to the event.

October 30, 2023Fabulous & Fantastic Evening
Thank you Eric for making the evening memorable for all of us! Our guest just loved you and still remembers you.
To start with Erick is a very talented, friendly and enthusiastic person who pays attention to all the requests that we make, I requested if he could incorporate Bollywood`s music which he did from start to finish. He was on time at the venue. He came with all the set up and the moment he started playing our guests enjoyed each and every moment and so did we. He is super talented and fun loving musician.
Thank you Eric and cheer to many more fun evenings the horizon.

September 14, 2023Best experience with a Saxophonist
Wow! I I wish words were enough to express our gratitude for the positive experience we had with Eric Giles, Salvationsax. You were awesome! Much better than we expected. You were so professional yet relatable. I will throw another party just to have you come and play the Saxophone for the party!! Thank you!
We booked Eric Giles for my uncle's 60th birthday party! From the booking, to the price, to communication, to professionalism, even up to performance, he was unbeatable!! His customer service was off the chart! Even when we made a change to the time, he adjusted for us. I thought it will be a struggle for him to play African music. But he put all the other people that play for our Nigerian parties to shame! He was lively, entertaining and just a joy to listen to! He even dressed in a Nigerian attire!!!
If you want to have a great time in your party, book with Eric Giles, Salvationsax. If you want to just enjoy good music with Saxophone, book with Eric Giles, Salvationsax. If you know anyone having a party, and wants to have a good time, tell them about Salvationsax, Eric Giles! And to Eric Giles, I want to officially say THANK YOU FOR A WONDERFUL TIME at my uncle's 60th birthday party.

September 11, 2025Fantastic experience working with Eric!
I cannot recommend Eric enough for those looking to hire a jazz musician in the Atlanta area! He is AMAZING!! Eric was communicative from the start, professional, and punctual. He arrived early at the venue/restaurant for a special and intimate dinner party I was hosting, and was quick to begin setting up and even made sure to have a spot for his instrument cases, etc. away from the crowd so it wasn't an eye sore. I was just expecting the saxophone, however, he ended up playing his flute and trumpet as well! Eric is a very multi-talented musician, and the crowd absolutely loved him! Beautiful jazzy tunes to really set the mood and evening off right for our cocktail hour out on the patio. Highly recommend his services!!
