About ShagzySax

Experienced Saxophonist, who can play multiple genres and surely will lift and spice up the atmosphere at your event.
Alto Saxophonist
Beckenham

I have played around the world with bands and artists at festivals (New Day Festival, Womad Festival) and locally at the Jazz Caffee and Indigo O2 Arena in London. I enjoyed touring with Osibisa band, Ckay, Stonebwoy. I am also gigging with my funk and afro pop band. I have also ministered at churches solo and with choir for special events. Jazz, Afropop, Funk, or Soul, I can play various genres. With Shagzy in your line up, rest assured you added that special note to your event. With over 20 years experience in music industry, I am proud to have shared a stage with artists like late Hugh Massakela and Peter White. I performed in TV talent shows,like "Stars of the future" and "TV3 mentor" and Award Shows such as GMA and Kora.

Shagzy was brilliant! I booked him for my wedding to play the bridal entry song and to entertain during our reception. The atmosphere changed, the moment he started playing. It was like the room lit up. He was able to entertain a multi-national audience by playing different genres. His presence at the wedding reception really made the difference. He stood out and all my guests loved him!
