I need to know any directions that will help us find the venue and find the right place to load in our equipment. We’d also need to be informed if there’s a sound limiter in the venue.

Yes, I'm happy to play music from Spotify before, after and between our sets. We’re happy to choose the music ourselves or let the client choose the music.

It's really hard to choose just one! Throughout my career, I've had the opportunity to perform on major stages and at jazz festivals, sharing the stage with renowned Portuguese bands such as L.U.M.E. (Lisbon Underground Music Ensemble).

I've also performed in some wonderful venues across Europe, including CCB (Centro Cultural de Belém) and Casa da Música in Lisbon and Porto, Aula Magna, as well as international venues in Sarajevo, Novara (...)

Each performance has brought a different experience, making it difficult to single out just one favourite. What matters most to me is the opportunity to connect with audiences through music, regardless of the stage.

I love playing at all sorts of events but weddings and private events are my favourite! The guests are always happy and it’s easy to get them dancing.

I started performing professionally after graduating, initially taking on gigs as a way to earn some extra money. What began as a side opportunity gradually became an important part of my musical career.

I've been influenced by saxophonists such as Candy Dulfer, Maceo Parker and Paquito D'Rivera, whose musical identities, versatility and stage presence have inspired me in different ways. I love exploring different musical styles, from jazz and funk to world music and electronic sounds. It's difficult to choose just one favourite artist or the greatest song of all time — I believe great music goes beyond genres and generations.

I usually arrive one hour before the performance to set up and prepare. My performances are typically structured in 25-minute live sets, with 7–9 minute breaks in between. However, I'm flexible and happy to adapt the format and timing to suit each event.

Absolutely! I love performing outdoors and enjoy the atmosphere of open-air events. The only requirement is suitable weather conditions, as rain can damage my musical equipment. A sheltered performance area is always preferable.

I'm very flexible with the musical direction of each performance. Clients can request specific songs, suggest particular musical styles or ask me to tailor the set to the atmosphere and concept of their event. I can also prepare special musical arrangements when needed.

Clients often describe my performances as energetic, engaging and full of personality. They particularly appreciate my stage presence, musical versatility and talent, as well as the positive energy I bring to every event.

Live music brings a unique human connection that recorded music alone cannot recreate. It's about the emotion of a live performance, the energy shared between the musician and the audience, and those spontaneous moments that bring people together. The saxophone adds a distinctive voice to the music, blending the warmth of live performance with the energy of a DJ set. From sophisticated background sounds to vibrant dancefloor moments, every performance is tailored to the atmosphere and spirit of your event.
