Sax by Impulse ⚡
"I was looking for a Saxophone player for an intimate birthday dinner for my dad's 70th birthday. I found Daniel on Gig Heaven, and was skeptical because I'd never used the site before. However, Daniel was very swift in his responses and also answered all my questions on our initial call. He did a fantastic job on the day and really made the event an enjoyable one. All the guests commented on how good he was and I truly feel he made the event a huge success. I would 100% recommend Daniel for anyone looking for a Saxophone player for their event. He's punctual, reliable and extremely professional."

"Hosting Virgo Vibes at the new Queen Victoria last year was an absolute pleasure. Kazz and his team were incredibly professional, organized, and brought an amazing energy to the space. The event was a huge success, and the feedback from guests was overwhelmingly positive. It was clear that a lot of thought and passion went into every detail. We’re proud to have been part of such a standout experience, and we look forward to working with Kazz and his team again in the future.
