Overview

If you're looking for the perfect music for your wedding, private party, corporate event, Christmas party, funeral, or grand opening, look no further. I play soprano, alto, and tenor sax, and EWI (Electronic Wind Instrument). My styles vary from jazz standards up to funk, with everything in between. Imagine the love songs you know, heard on a smooth mellow saxophone. I'm very flexible, and would love to provide the music for your event! I am based out of Farmington, MO.

Contact me, and you will get a quick response, usually within 24-48 hours.

** Due to schedule constraints, I will need at least a 14-day notice for bookings.

Gerry was the best!

Gerry was so professional and we had so many compliments on his performance during our cocktail hour. He really set the tone for the evening and we couldn’t have asked for a better saxophonist!

Surprised Saxophone player for baby shower

Gerry was absolutely awesome! From our very first conversation through the entire event, he was professional, friendly, and a pleasure to work with. His saxophone performance was outstanding and created the perfect atmosphere for my son & daughter in law’s baby shower. So many of our guests commented on how much they enjoyed his music. Gerry is incredibly talented, reliable, and helped make our celebration even more special. I highly recommend him for any event—you won’t be disappointed!

What to expect

Expect an energetic, positive show, filled with the smooth sounds of the saxophone, from the romantic, smooth jazz styles up to the funk-styled dance music. Each show would be unique to what the audience desires.

About

At age nine, Gerry Huggins began to explore the musical world with his saxophone. His talents with his sax won him the Outstanding Musician award in senior year of high school. Huggins attended Cal State University and received a BA in Communications. While studying, he continued playing his saxophone at Bakersfield College. This earned him two Most Outstanding Musician awards in the Bakersfield College Jazz Ensemble. In addition, he won two Outstanding Soloist awards for his appearances at the Fullerton College Jazz festival. His love for music turned professional during the mid 90s. He was invited to record with the local band, "The Pleasure Merchants" in their sophomore album, "Rhyme or Reason". Following that, he began playing for a variety of local bands, including "Thee Majestics", "T.O.S.B (The Old School Band)", and "The Rhythm Kings". After collaborating with keyboardist Darnell Gholston, he realized that his true passion was smooth jazz and R&B. Funk, jazz and old school styles are also among the genres Huggins exceeds in. His technique also can stretch from classical to big band. His debut album, "Ocean Breeze" was released in 2002; only to be followed by "A Very Special Christmas" in 2005 and "From the Heart" in 2007.

Additional booking notes

All I need is access to an outlet, as my setup consists of one speaker, and from there I am able to feed in my background tracks. I also have a setup for performing in areas that do not have electricity.

Set list

Varies by the event. With advanced notice (preferably one month notice), I can perform virtually any song that is requested.

Influences and inspiration

My biggest influence is saxophonist Gerald Albright, but I also have roots in the Old School bands from the 70's (Earth Wind & Fire, Isley Brothers, Tower of Power, etc). All of these grounds helped shape my sound.
