October 12, 2024Great Musician and Entertainer
We hired Mike D for our 25th wwdding anniversary celebration aboard the Sundream Caprice yacht. He played as guests arrived on the top deck then entertained during dinner. He finished out the night back on the top deck for those who wanted to chill instead of dancing. Mike was personable, perfessional and accommodating. He's also an excellent sax plyer! We highly recommend Mike D for your saxophone needs!

Setup requirements
I use my own mixer/tower speaker, and just need access to an outlet to power them. If there is an existing sound system, I would just plug my mixer into it.
