About Ian

Jazz saxophonist specialising in jazz standards: swing, latin, ballads. Solos are short and melodic. Also a pianist!
Saxophonist
Cambridge
Public liability insurance of £10 million

Multi-instrumentalist, published composer and arranger now focussed on jazz saxophone and piano. I have been gigging since the late 1980s on a variety of instruments and in a variety of styles and although I am fairly new to the solo-with-backing gig you can rely on me and I aim to entertain! I also run two bands: We Got That Swing! and Blues in Motion which appear on this platform. I usually play Tenor Saxophone but I can play some Baritone Sax for a change!

I loved the choice of songs, so many that I recognised and the sax playing was lovely!

My interactions with Ian were all professional and efficient. He accommodated all my song requests which I really appreciated. The performance was the perfect background to my event. I would definitely recommend!

Customer questions

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

With a different hat on I have played in front of 1000s at Sidmouth Folk Festival, and Strawberry fair in Cambridge.

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

I am very likely to be able to work around small changes in times. If extra performance time is required some adjustment to the fee may be required.

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

I can provide a bluetooth connection to my pa for you to be able to play your own music selections. I could provide some dinner jazz background music if you prefer.

How much time do you need to set up?

About 30 minutes setup time. I can play background music as soon as the PA is set up.

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

Yes, I am happy to play your requests.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

All I will need is a power socket close to the performance area.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

Yes this is possible assuming the song will fit in my set and I can source a backing track.
