Absolutely brilliant!! Everything we wanted and more. Andy was so great and worked with our DJ really well, I didn't have to worry about a playlist as Andy just played along. Everyone commented afterwards about how amazing the saxophonist was and I couldn't agree more. I would use Andy again for an event and would recommend him to anyone looking for a saxophonist.

Andy brought a recent livestream we put on a different dimension. Anyone can play the same melodies as the music being played by the DJ but Andy adds that extra something, pure vibes from start to finish. Cannot recommend him enough! A true pro
