If you're looking for a sax player, look no further!! I contacted Kyri as I was planning for the sax to be a complete surprise for my wife on our wedding day and wow, what a surprise it was!! Kyri and I had a call to discuss the day, theme, party and so on. He even asked how he should dress to ensure he fitted in with our theme which was such a nice touch. On the wedding day, he came out to one of my wife's favourite songs and it blew everyone away! We haven't stopped hearing compliments on how amazing he was from all of our guests. We didn't want to stop dancing. Thank you so so much Kyri, you legend!! Brooke & Adele

Kyri, thank you so much for your incredible sax music at our wedding, we couldn’t have been more impressed with your talent. You totally brought the party to life and ‘read our (30!) crowd’ brilliantly, playing all the right songs at the right time throughout the day and evening. Not only was your music just brilliant, we honestly felt like we had another one of our friends there with us. All the way through covid, you have been so helpful, prompt and accommodating to us with date changes and altered plans - we really can’t thank you enough. We are now just wanting to get planning another party so we can ask you play again!

Kyriacos was absolutely fantastic on the day and in the lead up to our wedding. He helped us choose and create a package that suited the wedding and gave us ideas which we hadn't thought of. We found the process very straight forward from enquiring to organising the song lists and again that's thanks to Kyri. He ensured there was something for everyone to enjoy and we all were enjoying his performance - what a talent!. The guests loved the music choices! We would highly recommend Kyri! Amazing performance, great job and we both wanted to say thank you and wish you a very Happy New Year.

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

The personal touch and connection to the audience

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

Many many to list - over 80 different venues in Europe.

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

Difficult question - it all depends on what style you are referring to as I have different players in mind for House or Jazz music!

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

Club saxophone - O Beach in Ibiza for ibiza Spray Lounge Sax - I played for after I was introduced to the queen Elizabeth during an awards ceremony

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

We always try our 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 us know and we will take it from there.

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 £75 per hour.

How much time do you need to set up?

We usually set up about 1 hour before the performance time. As soon as our PA is set up we can provide a free playlist service to help set the atmosphere and get your guests ready for our live performance!

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

Our set lists are crafted from countless performances and learning what works best to ensure guests have an amazing time. However, we're definitely happy to chat through and make sure we find what works for your event.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes, absolutely! We bring everything we require unless you want us to use the venue's PA or you have requested for a quote without our own PA.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

if a song isn't included in our song list there may still be a chance we already know it. If there is a special song you'd like us to learn we are happy to try and facilitate this for you.
