Nina played in the garden for my 60th birthday party - she played beautifully & created the perfect atmosphere. We will definitely book her again.

Nina performed at our surprise wedding on Saturday . We had organised for 40 people to come meet at our house and get on a coach without having a clue where they were going. After a quick visit to the registry office down the road, we return home for som Caribbean food and a surprise performance from Nina. Nina put together an amazing playlist which immediately got everyone up and dancing the afternoon away. I cannot thank Nina enough for doing this and would highly recommend to anybody that is looking for a saxophonist / thinking of booking Nina. Thanks so much for making our day even more special and adding yet another surprise to the mix 🙏💚

Saxophonists ‘Candy Dulfer’ and ‘The Lovely Laura’ are huge influences of mine. I love lots of styles of music, but some of my favourite music to perform is cheesy 80s songs, iconic sax solos, Funk music , and emotional love Ballads.

I usually arrive at least 1 hour before the event to set up my equipment and sound check.

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

I am more than happy for clients to pick the songs and to customise set lists, I can also learn some new songs as long as adequate time is given in advance.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes absolutely!

Can you learn song requests before the event?

I am happy to take requests and learn songs before an event as long as I can make it work for the saxophone and I am given adequate rehearsal time in advance.
