About MarkDohertySax

Versatile, vivacious and varied - tenor sax with backing tracks. From background jazz to pop razzmatazz, a bespoke set for all occasions.
Saxophonist
Newcastle upon Tyne

Played tenor sax for 34 years, initially in classical style but then expanded into jazz, rock and pop. Huge degree of flexibility to individually cater for any type of function or occasion. All played by ear, and from memory without sheet music. Delighted to learn and perform requests.

Mark performed at the drinks reception for the UK and Eire Glaucoma Society's Gala Dinner, and his set was perfectly tailored to the diverse age group in attendance. He struck the ideal balance—captivating the guests without overwhelming the atmosphere, allowing them to enjoy his music while mingling. His professionalism was evident throughout the event, from visiting the venue the day before to ensure the placement and acoustics were just right, to delivering an exceptional performance on the night. Mark set a jovial tone for the rest of the evening, and I would gladly book him again and highly recommend his services.

Mark played at our recent wedding, welcoming my husband and I to our reception. Our guests were wowed with his playing walking around the crowd playing a mix of modern and classic tunes. We and our guests loved every moment. Mark was amazing!

Tracks of my tears

Under the boardwalk
Way you look tonight
What's love got to do with it?
Wonderful world
You're the best thing
Your latest trick
Your love is king
