Kenneth Stone Mr Sax
"Mr. Stone has a gift
Mr. Stone has a gift that is God given. He played the saxophone during my Godfather’s memorial and it was beautiful. I wanted something that represented my Godfather, he loved jazz music and Mr. Stone delivered. I selected 1 song and he selected the other “ Jesus is the center of my joy” this was perfect. If you’re looking for a saxophonist I highly recommend Mr. Stone.

Soundbite
"The BEST band ever! We had such a wonderful time having SoundBite at our wedding celebration! Not only were they very easy to talk to when planning the event together, but they put on an AMAZING show. I think we had just about everyone on the dance floor at one point. I’m so grateful we found SoundBite and were able to host them at our party. I will think of them every time we have another event or someone else does. 11/10 experience! I couldn’t ask for a better time!"
Audley Reid Saxophonist
"Audley played sax at our drinks reception and honestly, he was such a great choice. Just him and his sax, and the whole room felt warmer the second he started. Guests kept wandering over to listen, and a few came up to ask us who he was. He was super easy to work with too, showed up on time and just got on with it. We’d book him again in a heartbeat."
