I play saxophones with backtracks. I can augment with a guitarist if needs be. I have just finished a ten year stint in the West Indies playing the clubs and up-market restaurants. I have a wide repertoire playing easy listening soulful sax. You can check me on Soundcloud under Miles Shorter. I also have a 4 piece R and B band (Dr. T-BONE) working out of Chester. I am based in North Wales but am prepared to travel if necessary. I have worked as a session musician both in London and Johannesburg. I am now back resident in the UK.

For solo work I use a very small area no more than 2 by 2 metres. For Dr. T.Bone we need preferably 5 by 3 metres.
Directions or post code. Opening times/parking.
Yes I use a small P.A. for solo work, or if for the Rn'B band (Dr. T.Bone) I have a larger P.A. system.
Yes I can supply background music between my sets.

Corporate gigs, weddings, private parties and Up-Market restaurants for solo work. Concerts and pub gigs etc. for Dr. T.Bone.
I have been playing for many years at venues throughout the world, with many sessions and TV work under my belt.
David Sanborn, Grover Washington, Sting, there are so many greatest songs to choose from, I would put A Whiter Shade of pale among the best of them.
For my solo work the set up is minimal. I would normally do two sets of 45 to 60 mins. but am happy to play for longer if needs be.
Yes, weather permitting.
I'm happy to play requests if it's suitable to the gig and practical and if I know them, otherwise if a special tune is needed for an event I'm happy to play it if given prior warning.
I will always get paid and often get asked back so I guess that's not a bad judge.
