Full Biography

Classic Sax is a hugely experienced and talented alto/tenor saxophonist. Performing popular hits (old and new!) plus jazz standards, his varied repertoire offers something for every occasion.

Classic Sax has performed as a soloist and with bands of various genres around Britain and Europe for over 20 years. He also has studied hard and gained a Master's degree in musical performance demonstrating his commitment to his art form and complimenting his already impressive skills.

Even though he is just one man and a saxophone, Classic Sax can create an energetic party atmosphere or alternatively, a relaxed feel to your day. Performing alongside high quality professionally-recorded backing tracks as standard, Classic Sax will always read the room and cater for a range of atmospheres. Additionally, Classic Sax’s years of professional experience means he can even impressively freestyle alongside your DJ to bring those Ibiza vibes!

Whether your event requires a dynamic party vibe or a softer ambience, Classic Sax has got you covered! Performing live is, quite simply, what Classic Sax does best and he loves doing it!

Please note: For outdoor events Classic Sax will need shelter from the weather due to musical instruments and electrical equipment not faring well in direct sunlight or rain.

booked Classic Sax for their Wedding November 2024

“Absolutely Amazing. Was able to accommodate to our every need for our wedding reception, Michael even hid below the DJ table until it was his time to pop out and surpise all of our guests! Would recommend for any event!”


Booking Michael Was One Of My Best Decisions!

5 stars - Classic Sax are Highly Recommended
booked Classic Sax for their event October 2024

“I recently celebrated my 21st birthday, and I can confidently say that asking Michael to be apart of it was one of the best decisions I made! From the moment he arrived, he brought incredible energy that set the tone for the entire evening. Michael played his Ibiza playlist for the evening and I must say it was unreal! Gave me goosebumps. Michael made sure everyone was involved and had a sing song and dance with most of the guests. It was lovely to see. Just want to personally thank you Michael, for coming down that evening to fill the room with your music. I cannot recommend Michael enough! If you're looking for a talented saxophonist for your event, then he is your guy. He truly made my 21st birthday one to remember, and I can't wait to get in touch with him again for future celebrations! Thank you, Michael, for an amazing night.”
