Overview

I DO NOT PLAY ALONGSIDE DJs. I have my own set up and professional instrumentals.
Hiring me, you wont need a $1250 dollar DJ. I play the melody to all of your favorite tunes with a jazzy touch to them. Im a by-ear 10 year professional saxophonist. A powerful sony portable bluetooth speaker will be brought with me to events. I specialize in cocktail hours for weddings but open to receptions, parties, events, gatherings, joining bands for anything else that could use a saxophonist for ambience

I would highly recommended Saxmanwill

We booked Saxmanwill for a RB tiny desk inspired concert to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Saxmanwill arrived early and set up quickly. Saxmanwill was very responsive and he played all of our requested songs and added other songs to fit the theme. Saxmanwill sounded amazing. I would highly recommend him.
