I am extremely versatile and a passionate player, a true saxophone chameleon for any style, event, group, and a natural talent for playing to the room. I have played Alto Saxophone for 32 years, I studied jazz performance at The New School in NYC, and have been a performing member of countless Bay Area bands, including Vinyl, Katdelic, Soul Ska, Angelex, and Free Sax. I have had the extreme pleasure of performing numerous times with Bob Weir of The Grateful Dead, George Clinton of Parliament, Angelo Moore of Fishbone, Taj Mahal, Isaac Hayes, Joe Chambers, Bonnie Hayes, and many other local legends. I read, write, compose, and arrange music, and am an active studio recording artist, as well.
Aaron Saul was an amazing performer! He serenaded the audience with nostalgic classics,. His professional, patience and charisma shinned through. Aaron played his heart out to our residents at PVE. Looking forward having him back again
We're a community orchestra. Sometimes we need musicians to fill a missing part. In this case, we needed an alto saxophone player. Aaron was professional, prepared, and friendly -- everything you could expect from a talented artist. We were honored to have him join us for the performance! :)

A true professional, I am always on time, always thoroughly rehearsed and come prepared with iPad full of charts, I bring my own wireless microphone and in-ear monitors, my own supplies and cables, and I always dress accordingly and follow the rules of the venue and/or event. I have my own reliable vehicle.
I am a smiling moving showman on stage, I love to make eye contact and give people a great experience and memory!
Born and raised in Mill Valley and Novato, California, I began playing Alto Saxophone when I was 10 years old and I've never taken my eyes off of it. It has always been my greatest inspiration and my deepest source of soul and passion, and I am happy to say that after playing for 32 years, my art truly shines thru my horn with my naturally lyrical sensibilities. I have always been an extremely empathetic and understanding character, very personable, very reliable and I am always on time and very professional. I stood out in my music talents in high school and received a big scholarship to attend The New School University in New York City, where I lived and worked and studied from 1999 thru 2003, focusing on a major in Jazz Performance. I returned to the Bay Area mid 2003 and have remained since, where my music career has truly flourished and grown into something beautiful, playing with countless bands and sharing the stage with many local and national/international legends, including George Clinton of Parliament, Bob Weir of The Grateful Dead, Angelo Moore of Fishbone, and Taj Mahal, to name a few. I love to solo, I love to change genres and try new things, and I am available for anything your Alto Saxophone dreams and needs could desire!
