ABOUT

Touring pro sax player seeks opportunities to fill empty diary dates!

For more details about me please see SAXNIK.

I've got several years experience working with function bands, big band swing, and all manner of outfits playing blues, soul, ska, funk and jazz and would like to meet new musicians to work with.

I read music well, improvise fluently, know a lot of standard party tunes and jazz heads and have my own transport and small PA.

Get in touch!
