Photo of Watusi Watusi "Watusi always FUN, professional, authentic, real, ontime, flexible, entertaining, interactive and a joy to work with!" Based in Dallas, Texas 5th August 2026 J Towry - Party Photo of Aaron On Sax Aaron On Sax "On July 19, 2025, we were blessed by "Aaron on Sax" at the Jacaranda Country Club in Plantation, Florida. Aaron drove from Tallahassee, Florida to South Florida in order to perform for our father's 90th birthday celebration. Aaron is affordable, professional, willing to travel, easy to work with and has been blessed by God with a talent for playing various saxophones. Aaron's performance was truly phenomenal. He performed from 11 AM - 3 PM with minimal breaks. Our father and guests' enjoyed him and the wide selection of music immensely. Looking forward to hiring Aaron for future events and sharing his name with anyone who is searching for a saxophonist who plays the entire event. Aaron, We pray God continues to bless you with health and strength to continue serving as a saxophonist. Sonya and Darryl Long" Based in Tallahassee, Florida (754 miles from Dallas) 21st October 2025 Sonya and Darryl Long - 90th Birthday Party Photo of Chris Arpad Solo Steel Drum Entertainment Chris Arpad Solo Steel Drum Entertainment "Terrific and magical Having Chris come to my cousin's birthday was one of the best decisions I have made. My family thought he was absolutely perfect and loved his music. My cousin was happily surprised and was thankful for his attentiveness. He arrived promptly, set up, and played for the agreed amount of time. What I found so endearing is that he spoke to my cousin to get an idea of what songs she would like to hear. My cousin has a difficult time speaking due to her brain cancer, but Chris was very kind and took the time to understand her. I would definitely keep him in mind for future events."
