Saxophonist

Slough

In 1982 I first picked up the Saxaphone, not thinking it would be one of the greatest loves I have in my life. I have been part of many bands including blues, soul and a saxophone and guitar duo, as well as impressing my children, and now grandchildren, with top hits and nursery rhymes. I have performed at many different events, from guests up and dancing at weddings, garden parties and special events, such as the Windsor races and food festivals, and more relaxed gigs at places restaurants and pubs. My setlist can vary from relaxing soul music, to popular songs and artists such as: • Madness • Amy Winehouse • John Lennon • Adele • Lewis Capaldi • Elvis Presley As well as various Ska, Soul and Rock n Roll tunes. All songs are played on either my Alto or Tenor Saxophone, bringing my own set up to each set. Check out my videos to see me in action!

I had a garden party recently, I found Eddie Riff on Facebook, he lives in Datchet, close to my home in Ashford. I spoke to Eddie & agreed the date, his set was so amazing! It made my garden party, everyone was dancing & he played lots of Ska & classic tunes. I cannot recommend Eddie Riff enough. He's a true professional, with a wide repertoire of different music. I'll definitely be booking him again to play saxophone, with the added bonus of having a beautiful singing voice.

Paul played at our wedding and he was incredible! First he sang our first dance “Can’t help falling in love”, which was so special and then did a mix of sax and singing for a couple hours before the DJ arrived for the evening. Everyone was on their feet, young and old which was so good to see. Paul is a top guy, great and listening to what you are looking for, promptly sets up, bringing everything he needs so he’s ready. We had nothing but compliments from all our guests, some sad he had to go!
