About Richard

Tenor sax player who has played at many hundreds of events in the UK and Europe - both in function bands and solo. Can play in any location
Saxophonist
West Wickham
Public liability insurance of Β£10 million

Started playing the saxophone at seventeen, inspired by Roland Kirk, Jimi H, Sly Stone, Miles Davis etc. Have played in Soul, Rock, Punk bands but the thread is Jazz. I often perform in town centres around the South East of England. I also play blues harmonica to a high standard. It is important to get it right, this includes music volume, appearance, being adaptable and being friendly
