Photo of Julian Christopher Julian Christopher "Julian played the saxophone for the first hour as our guests arrived for my dad's birthday, and he was absolutely brilliant. His performance created the perfect atmosphere and set the tone for a wonderful celebration. The music was elegant, relaxed, and beautifully played, with everyone commenting on how much they enjoyed it. Julian was professional, friendly, and a pleasure to have at the event. His talent really added something special to the day, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a fantastic saxophonist for their event."

He is super reliable even though he had a tooth op the the day before and was on meds and he had been in hospital all night the day before as is mother in law was ill. Karl was brilliant, he really sounded like Elvis and moved like Elvis and was a right laugh. He got everyone dancing and singing and was hamming it up, which everyone loved. He really made the day special. Thanks Karl" Based in Dunstable, England (29 miles from Northampton) Louise Marian - Family covid after party Photo of Chris Flegg Chris Flegg "Chris is not only a highly accomplished musician, with fabulous guitar skills, he has a wonderful voice, and a great sense of fun. So happy to have him perform In our home, where he played a sang for 2 hours from an extensive list of songs old and new. We also enjoyed some light hearted banter with Chris during the evening. It was sad when it all had to end. No hesitation in recommending Chris for a personal or lively event."
