SaxoDance

Get ready for a dynamic, interactive experience that will captivate your guests and leave a lasting impression.

Time after time, clients tell me that SaxoDance is the highlight of their event—the special touch that elevates the celebration beyond expectations.

You may know that blending DJ vibes with live saxophone is one of the hottest trends in party entertainment! I will happily partner with your DJ to deliver that experience!

You don’t have to worry about the technicalities (sound system, etc.) as I coordinate directly with your venue or your DJ. Just enjoy your party!

Following a rewarding career in engineering, I (Stephan Pelletier) came back to my teenage love for playing music instruments (flute, saxophone, clarinet, classical guitar, keyboard) and, since 2012, seriously focused on the most sexy music instrument 😊, the SAX🎷.

As of fall 2023, I developed a new saxophone-led cover project (sax in lieu of vocals), called SaxoDance, for entertaining parties and events, which has been highly successful locally and abroad, such as performing 30 gigs at beach restaurants and resorts in Dominican Republic during my winter stays in 2024 and 2025.

"For Novus, you are the best saxophone entertainer we’ve ever had, and we hope you can come soon so we can enjoy your music together again." (Fabio Nuñez Martinez, Novus restaurant manager, Dominican Republic)

From childhood, I was always passionate about music and especially ADORED those ’80s epic saxophone solos. In recent years, I discovered that popular songs played by a saxophone (especially in the format of one-man-band with professional backing tracks) got people really energized and entertained, and this inspired me greatly!

I got first highly influenced by saxophonist Candy Dulfer with her famous “Lily Was Here” sax & guitar duo with Eurythmics’ Dave Stewart. Then, I discovered an amazing Italian saxophone solo artist, Danielle Vitale, who gets crowds moving and dancing across the world with popular covers (see on Youtube), and who is the greatest inspiration for SaxoDance!

Above and beyond, I paired my engineering abilities to my saxophone playing by programming real-time harmony effects management, with a combination of technologies, so I could play multiple voices at the same time. This engineered production effectively delivers a UNIQUE real-time MULTI-SAX performance, and gets people to experience an authentic and exciting rendition of popular covers they all know, albeit sax-based instead of vocals. They just love it!

I aim to get people off their feet and onto the dance floor! With 7 hours of current SaxoDance repertoire, I can do just that and I enjoy it very much! 🎷😊

Besides my solo SaxoDance act, I am also part of the well-acclaimed Foreigner tribute Canadian band "Forever Foreigner", where I can perform my ultimate teenage-dream 80's saxophone solo: URGENT 😁

I can bring a full sound system if required.
