From the moment we reached out about our wedding day, our experience with Tom was nothing short of exceptional. His communication was prompt and professional, making the planning process a breeze. When it came to the music, he exceeded our expectations. Not only was the playlist perfect, but he also worked with us to create a personalised first dance that was unforgettable. His performance was outstanding, adding a touch of elegance and flair that truly elevated the atmosphere. We couldn't have asked for a better saxophonist to be a part of our wedding. Highly recommend! Thank you Tom! Truly phenomenal! Luke and Alison Cooper 9th March 2024

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

When I am asked to play a party set for guests, I get everybody up dancing and I’m frequently told it was the best part of the night!

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

I’ve performed in a huge variety of venues across the UK - from the Mareel music hall in Shetland to the o2 academy in London, I have entertained thousands of people over the past 20 years!

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

My taste in music is extremely diverse - I love music which inspires from Bruce Springsteen to Avicci, Miles Davis to Marvin Gaye, there is always a perfect song for every moment.

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

I have played with a Bruce Springsteen tribute to 10,000 people at a festival and with a new grassroots band to 40 people in a tiny venue - regardless of the size of the crowd, I will always give it everything I have!

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

I will always try my best to be flexible to help ensure your event runs as smoothly as possible. If timings change slightly in the run up to the event just let me know.

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

Absolutely. This is a really popular request and we actually offer this service for free. If you'd like a DJ service via our PA after the final set until the venue closes, we provide this for an additional £100.

How much time do you need to set up?

I usually set up about 30 mins before the performance time. As soon as the PA is set up I can provide a free playlist service to help set the atmosphere and get your guests ready for the live performance!

Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?

My set lists are crafted from countless performances and learning what works best to ensure guests dance and have an amazing time. However, I am definitely happy to chat through requests and make sure we find the perfect set for your event.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes, absolutely! I bring my own instrument to play and can provide a PA as required or hook straight into the existing set up.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

If a song isn't included in the song list there may still be a chance I already know it. If there is a special song you'd like me to learn I am happy to do this for you.
