The Kent Saxophone Player has been making music since before he can remember and is proficient in many styles, on a number of instruments. Since graduating university, Dave has performed in a range of top-quality bands across the country, including some of London's most prestigious venues.

It's unique, classy and fun, and goes a long way towards creating that 'no expenses spared' feel without overloading the budget.

Additional Notes:
The Kent Saxophone Player can provide suitable background or party music in between his sets, and for around half an hour after he has finished, whilst he packs away.
He invites all his clients to request songs and styles to suit their event. A “Sax Covers” performance is limited mainly to the repertoire listed below, as he uses specific backing tracks which are chosen specially to accompany the sax. “Smooth Sax” and “Party Sax” performances are much more flexible as the backing music is much less specific.
All prices quoted relate to the vast majority of bookings in Kent, however bookings on or around bank holidays, or elsewhere in the country/world may be subject to additional fees.
PERFORMANCE STYLES:
The Kent Saxophone Player plays a huge variety of music and offers three main style options. If your package contains more than one set then you can even choose to mix-and-match the different styles! Please check out his videos to see which style(s) would be perfect for your event.
“Sax Covers” Style:
In a “Sax Covers” session, he plays a huge range of pop and jazz classics, giving everything a cool, saxy vibe! He performs his “Sax Covers” sessions using professional backing tracks which have the singing removed (similar to karaoke tracks), so the sax can take the lead! You are welcome to make requests from his playlist of 200 songs, and he can usually learn one or two songs specially, as well!
Recommended for ceremonies, dinner, drinks, restaurants, etc. A “Sax Covers” session doesn’t need to involve a DJ.
“Smooth Sax” Style:
A “Smooth Sax” session is a mix of tropical house and Cafe Del Mar tracks, as well as chill-out remixes of well-known pop tunes, perfect for creating that holiday beach bar vibe!
Recommended for drinks, garden and pool parties, BBQs and any other event that wants a sunshiny vibe! This is also perfect for the opening set at an evening party, whilst the guests are arriving at the venue. He can perform a “Smooth Sax” session with or without a DJ.
“Party Sax” Style:
Looking for an Ibiza style Sax-DJ party? A “Party Sax” session is sure to make your event one to remember! He can perform a huge range of styles including Ibiza, club, dance, kisstory, garage, club classics, R'n'B and more! In fact, he can play more-or-less anything in a “Party Sax” session, so you don’t have to choose from a specific list.
Recommended for hen parties, birthdays, clubs and any event where you’ll want to dance! He can perform a “Party Sax” session on his own for smaller events (bars, small clubs, etc.), but we suggest also booking a DJ to join him for larger events.

“Thanks for being so patient and accommodating with all our queries and demands. You added such a special touch to our day and your version of our 1st walk down the aisle will always bring a tear to my eye. Thank you so much.
”
“The Kent Saxophone Player performed during our wedding drinks reception and wedding breakfast. He was exceptional and we couldn’t recommend him enough. Many of our guests commented on the quality of his performances. From our initial contact, he couldn’t have been more helpful and made organising a Covid wedding much easier!
”
“Thank you so so much for playing at our wedding! You were amazing and walking into our wedding breakfast to your playing “Ain’t Nobody” is a moment that will stay us forever! Thank you.
”
“Amazing amazing amazing! The Kent Saxophone Player played at our wedding last month & was just brilliant! He played alongside our DJ & completely entertained the crowd! He was completely professional & accommodating when we had to change our date due to covid!! If you’re thinking about about a saxophonist then I would 100% recommend him! Thank you.
”
“The Kent Saxophone Player was an amazing addition to our wedding! We were so happy we booked with him. He added another level of fun to the dancefloor. He is professional and talented and I would recommend anyone to book him!
”
“I just have to say a MASSIVE thank you for Saturday night! You were just perfect, everyone really enjoyed hearing you play and you just slotted right into the crowd! Thank you again!!
”
“I just wanted to express our biggest THANK YOU to you for being part of our special day on Saturday! Having you play for us really added the wow factor to the day & I honestly cannot thank you enough. I know from the feedback that you went down a storm with all of our guests & I think you have made a friend for life in our DJ too!
”
“The Kent Saxophone Player played at the reception of our wedding in September, and absolutely smashed it! We loved having him there & made it extra special coming out to surprise everyone during our first dance! Thanks again.
”
“We were blown away on Monday at our wedding. The dance floor was like a Saturday night in a London Club. You would never think it was a Monday night in the countryside during a covid AND a fuel crisis. Thanks to you for playing sax with such passion. Everyone raved about you and complimented us on what a good idea it was to have you playing with the music. Thanks for also restoring a little structure as time really ran away with us.
”
“The Kent Saxophone Player performed during our drinks reception and he was absolutely brilliant. Could not recommend him more!!! Communication was completely clear from the moment we started speaking, I made some suggestions regarding the types of music I wanted to be played and he delivered. Thank you very much.
”
“The Kent Saxophone Player performed brilliantly at my birthday party outdoors. He added enormously to the happy ambience and pitched his performance exactly right for the guests. I also really appreciated how well-organized he was in his communications beforehand.
”
“We booked Dave months and months ago to play at our wedding after a million and one positive reviews. He is absolutely amazing. He was professional, kind, friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Communication was always easy and he answered all questions we had and was extremely accommodating during uncertain times. We had nothing but smiles on the faces of our guests during the welcome drinks when Dave was playing. I am now trying to think of another event we can book him for just to listen to more! Thank you Dave. You are one of life’s good eggs.
”
“We had The Kent Saxophone Player play at our wedding back in October and he was amazing! Our guests came up to me during and after when they were leaving to tell me how amazing he was and that he made the evening music even better! Amazing sax player!! Thank you so much!!!
”
“Just wanted to say a big thank you for playing at our party last Friday, you were amazing and everyone loved in!
”
“The Kent Saxophone Player was absolutely amazing, we really can’t thank and recommend him enough! After having our Cyprus wedding cancelled, I was gutted about the thought of not being able to have a saxophonist at an affordable price, until I found him. From the moment I messaged him, I instantly knew I wanted to book him as he was super friendly and not pushy in the slightest. We had him perform at our wedding cocktail reception and he was incredible! All of our guests still speak about him now! If you’re in two minds whether to book him, do it, you’ll only regret it if not.
”
“Just wanted to say a massive thank you for making our wedding even more special. Without you our evening would have been ruined but you saved the day. For that I’m forever grateful. Everyone thought you were totally amazing.
”
“Thank you so much! From the chilled music earlier in the day to the party you were faultless and brilliant! Everyone commended on how great you were and how much they enjoyed your performances! Thank you for taking out party to the next level!
”
“Thank you so much again for everything it was amazing xxx
”
“Thank you so much for helping us in our fight for #EveryChildhood. It's thanks to amazing people like you, that we can do what we do.
”
“Just wanted to say on behalf of myself and Kelly how thankful we are for you coming along and performing at our wedding at The Orangery on 23 August 2018. You are a fantastic sax player and a wonderful man. We felt honoured to have you there, and lots of our guests commented on how amazing you was as a performer, how you added a touch of class to proceedings & commenting on what a great guy you were in general (A class act performer!). Your biggest fan of the day (our young niece Freya) was having a wonderful time along with everyone else from our families to our friends in what was truly a wonderful day & a day we will never forget, and we cannot thank you enough for being a part of it!
”
“Daniel played at our wedding in October this year and was absolutely brilliant! I would highly recommend him to play at your wedding or events!
”
“We just wanted to email to say thank you again for performing at our wedding at St. Augustine's on 1st December, everyone loved it and it gave it the magical Christmas feel we wanted!
”
“We can't thank you enough Daniel. You were kind enough to speak to me over the Christmas period to arrange what we wanted for our wedding day. You made our day complete. You were absolutely amazing. Everyone has said how perfect you were. Thank you so much. Anyone looking for a sax player Dan is your man. Absolutely brilliant. Thanks again love me and Kaj
”
“Couldn’t recommend Daniel highly enough. He entertained our guests at our wedding, Cooling Castle 30.01.19 and they were all so complementary and it really set the mood. Can’t thank him enough for his amazing service.
”
“We had Daniel play at our wedding back in 2017 and he was absolutely amazing. Nothing is ever a problem and every song choice Dave had it in the bag. We really wanted a Ibiza theme for the Sax and he was more than happy to check out and play along with the dance tunes we wanted. Our guests loved him! On Saturday I booked him again for my 30th birthday party. He played most of the night along to every song. He really got the party started and I have had constant feedback since on how amazing he was. Best Sax player in town. Thank you so much!
”
“Thanks so much for the great performances yesterday! We have had so many compliments from people saying how great you were.
”
“Daniel played for us at our wedding. He was absolutely amazing and our guests were entertained from start to finish would highly recommend!
”
“I booked Daniel for my Mum's 60th Afternoon tea. Very easy to book with great communication. On the day he was amazing! He had even learnt my Mum's favourite song, she cried! Would definitely recommend Daniel to make your event extra special.
”
“We were very lucky to have Daniel at our wedding recently, we were more than impressed upon hearing him play during our ceremony, even the hotel staff were highly impressed. During the reception he walked around the tables playing his sax while clearly very into the music himself which made for an amazing atmosphere. He finished by playing alongside my father which I'll never forget. Absolutely amazing man.
”
“Daniel wowed our intimate gathering for my parent's golden wedding anniversary celebrations at home on Sunday delivering so much more than the sonic experience. Somehow he managed to create an atmosphere that was warm, eloquent and inclusive kicking off the playlist with smooth Ibiza style chill out music, a seamless transition through classic Sting and Van Morrison ending on a rendition of a Tottenham chant my father has sung on the terraces all his life! So if you're reading this I think you need to know that Dave ticks all the boxes; he does all the things you'd expect him to do and more; easy to book, willingness to deliver a bespoke package, great communication, a courtesy call before the event to check timings and flexibility when working with other artists/performers, He is organised and in complete control with backup systems to boot.
”
“Couldn't recommend Daniel highly enough. He played for us at our wedding, doing a set of upbeat, Ibiza-style songs after the ceremony and then some more chilled stuff during the meal. It was fantastic and really set the mood for the day. We have had so many comments and compliments about it from the guests. He's also a very friendly guy, well-organised and great to deal with!
”
“Daniel was a great asset to our garden party for 42 people. His repertoire is extensive and he entertained us brilliantly - all our guests loved his music. Daniel is a very good communicator who keeps in touch and is very pleasant and accommodating. I would have no hesitation in recommending him if you're looking for a nice guy who does a great job.
”
“Daniel played at our wedding in October this year and was absolutely brilliant! I would highly recommend him to play at your wedding or event!
”
“He made my birthday party go with a swing. My friends and family haven't stopped talking about him since the party. He is very approachable and friendly and mixes well with the guests. His unique style of mingling with the audience goes down very well. I cannot wait to book him for my next party. Thank you again for making the day so special.
”
“He was fantastic. He was so helpful and his playing was brilliant. It made our daughter's wedding very special. Thank you.
”
“We have had so many comments to say how fantastically you played, and especially in the 28 degree heat! The children and babies were really entertained and you played such a wide selection of songs. We are so pleased you performed our aisle song as it made it the more special. You really made our day and we thank you so much! Cannot recommend you enough.
”
“As we got engaged in Ibiza we was after a Cafe Del Mar theme during the welcome drinks. He worked so hard and really gave our wedding the Ibiza chill out theme. During the wedding breakfast he played some more romantic tunes to set the scene. I have had none stop comments since the wedding about how fantastic he was and we would highly recommended him to everyone.
”
“Thank you so much for your hard work on the day, I didn't realise you would walk around and interact throughout the meal and that was such a lovely touch! We had lots of compliments about you and everyone loved the music you played. I'm so glad we had you there it really helped make it that bit more special!
”
“All of our guests commented on how good he was, and he wasn't just stood in one place, he made an effort to walk through the crowds. We would highly recommend him to anyone wanting a saxophonist for any occasion. The whole booking process was easy. We both express are most sincere thanks for completing our Wedding Day.
”
“From the moment I contacted him I knew he was the saxophonist I wanted to have play at our wedding, he made the booking so easy from start to finish and for a busy bride I can not express how wonderful that was. Thank you so much for being part of our day and completing my dream of having a truly exceptional saxophonist on our special day.
”
“Thanks so much for playing at our wedding. The saxophone was a perfect accompaniment to our drinks reception and the band followed on with a fantastic performance keeping everyone on the dance floor the entire night! Everyone loved it!
”
“He played saxophone at our wedding in Aug 16 and out of all of the people we booked for different things, he put our mind at absolute rest. He worked the room on the day and all the guests loved his music! A true professional and a very talented musician!! We hope to hire him again soon.
”
“We had him play at our wedding and it was the best decision we made! He learnt 3 extra songs that were sentimental to us. It made our service extremely personal and he did the songs great justice. All our guests enjoyed the music and we had lots of compliments. For anyone thinking about booking him don't hesitate you will not be disappointed!!
”
“Your performance was exactly as we had imagined and, given that the age range was vast your repertoire catered for everyone from my 89 year old father (who was mesmerised!!) to the toddlers who enjoyed a boogie! All of our guests complimented your performance and I wouldn't be surprised if some of them contact you for future events.
”
“A touch of class, a perfect wedding addition and fantastic value to boot. Totally professional and engaging, everyone was impressed and thoroughly enjoyed his music.
”
“He went down a storm at our wedding reception. He was the perfect addition to afternoon tea and everyone said how great he was. We would definitely recommend him and book him again.
”
“Rahul and I would like to thank you so much for the wonderful music you played for our big day, it really set the mood and made the day special! It was great hearing some of our favourite songs played so well and we had so many positive comments for days afterwards!
”
“He was amazing on our wedding day, he was professional and everyone said how good he was! He kept in touch with me regularly in the lead up to the wedding so I felt he really knew what we wanted on the day. He mingled brilliantly with the guests and played the requests that we discussed. I couldn't recommend him more :-)
”
“Thank you for making our day so magical with your incredible musical skills. Everyone couldn't stop praising you.
”
“Thanks for making the day that extra bit special. Everybody thought that you were fantastic, playing a wide range of music that didn't intrude on guests whilst having dinner. It could not have been better. Thank you once again for a truly professional performance enjoyed by everybody that came to the wedding.
”
“You were brilliant and absolutely made our day. So many of our guests commented on how good you are and how it just made the most wonderful garden party atmosphere.
