Musician playing Guitar and Saxophone, and I sing. I Also, can DJ if needed. I usually play non-intrusive sax at the beginning of the function and then later, switch to guitar and then DJ.
I pride myself on “reading the crowd” and keeping them happy and entertained. I have worked in many venues including: Carnival City, Emperors Casino and Hotels, Sandton Sun. Many weddings and Functions.
I cover a very wide genre. My sax repertoire I’d say would be Smooth Jazz, Swing and covers of Popular artists too.
My guitar repertoire, covers from the 60’s to a few modern songs, but mostly 60’s/70’s to 90’s. I play a few Afrikaans songs also.
I play many Irish, English and some Scottish songs too. Sax songs for example include: Lion sleeps tonight, Jerusalem, Baker Street: A very wide range of songs.
I have been performing for over 40 years. As a teenager I took classical piano for a few years. I later played bass guitar in bands as a young man. Later on I started to play saxophone songs too.
I now perform solo. Playing guitar and saxophone and singing also. I find my combination of Live music AND also DJ, gives the client variety. I do often ONLY play the Saxophone for all types of functions, weddings, even the odd funeral. Pride myself on always having very satisfied clients!
I have a good sound system and (if needed) lighting for party gigs. I pride myself in “reading the crowd” Giving the client and his guests the music that They want! What suits the specific occasion.
I ALWAYS get positive comments after my performance!! I play music to satisfy ALL people of our Rainbow Nation!!
