Jason Arce
"Living states away, I wanted to express a novel way to wish my sister a Happy Birthday. After viewing Jason's video of his saxophone skills I felt he would be excellent for playing happy birthday for a door telegram. He was prompt in responding to messages as we figured out a day and time that worked best for him and my sister. He was professional, nice, and easy to talk to. Thank you again for a cherished memory, Jason!!"

Musko Music
"Hi Brandon,
We just wanted to take a moment to sincerely thank you for being such an important part of our cocktail hour. I’m so sorry we didn’t get the chance to meet you in person, but please know that we were admiring your musical talent from all corners of the venue.
A special thank you for taking the time to learn songs that meant so much to us personally. Not every musician is willing to go the extra mile like that, and it truly didn’t go unnoticed. We received so many compliments throughout the evening about having you there, and we couldn’t have been happier with our choice. ☺️
You may not realize just how much it meant to us, but you added such a special touch to our celebration and helped make the evening that much more memorable. We’re genuinely so grateful. Thank you again 🙂
Best,
Maddy & Babs"

"I absolutely love listening to him play his saxophone!! I have hired him to play at our special events at work and for my family events. He knows how to create the perfect list of songs to fit your particular event. We love to see him come in the door and hate to see him leave. We sing along we play the instruments that he provides, it’s just a great experience. 10 out of 10 every time"
