Wesley's Reviews

5 out of 5

I booked Wesley to play at a Bar Mitzvah and I can’t say enough good things about him. He is professional and organised, plus a genuinely friendly guy. He’s a great sax player and really energetic on stage, which helped get the room dancing.

Wes is a highly-versatile multi-instrumentalist, arranger and composer. Equally at home recording in the studio or performing live, he injects a boundless energy into all situations and onto all stages, understanding what is required and executing it to an exceptional standard. Wes comes prepared, full of ideas and creativity, and his professional attitude and top-quality equipment ensure a fantastic performance every time.
