Private Events & Music Services
Live Music with Soul, Style, and Substance
Whether you're planning a wedding, private party, corporate gathering, gallery opening, or creative collaboration, I offer custom-tailored musical experiences that will elevate the energy and meaning of your event.
Based in the Triangle, NC, I specialize in jazz saxophone performance - solo or with curated ensembles - as well as creative accompaniment with DJs, original soundtracks, background piano music, and ambient or ceremonial music for both traditional and alternative settings. Performances can be acoustic or amplified, with professional backing tracks and a full band w/ sound system when needed.
Services Include
Ceremony & Special Moments – Solo saxophone (acoustic or with backing tracks), proposals, birthdays, anniversaries
Cocktail & Dinner Sets – Jazz, soul, bossa nova, or custom-curated playlists
High-Energy Sax with DJ – Live improvisation to get the dance floor moving
Full Band Curation – Jazz trios, wedding bands, or custom ensembles
Creative & Ambient Soundscapes – For exhibitions, yoga/spiritual gatherings, film, or theater
Original Music & Arrangements – Compositions for bands, theater, singers, and multimedia
Studio Session Work – Solos, horn sections, arranging (remote or in-person)
All Musical Styles
From 1920s swing to modern R&B, from soulful ballads to Latin jazz, I’m comfortable moving across genres and tailoring the tone to your tastes. Repertoire includes classic standards, pop favorites, global grooves, and original arrangements.
