    Phenomenal Live Music

    Kevin has been able to play for us on multiple occasions and each time he has knocked it out of the park, he played "Perfect - Ed Sheeran" when we got married at the San Diego Courthouse as a surprise for us. It was a fantastic performance and completely unexpected. He did a great job setting up and "hiding" away until it was the right time to come out. Then for our reception, Kevin played "Can't Help Falling in Love - Elvis" while the bride walked down the aisle and nailed it! He is extremely professional and worked with us to make sure that his performance matched our vision. He also played during cocktail hour and did a great job with our guests and playing amazing music!


Normally I charge $300/hour and $200 for each subsequent hour. If you have a small or personal event, please ask me about my family specials or a cash discount. I need to charge extra for special requests and to travel outside San Diego.
I am happy to play a variety of jazz, blues, funk, rock music, Latin, or pop music. Many times people want mellow background music to just add a little something to their event. But occasionally people want dance music. I have done it all, and I’m happy to work with you to create your ideal event.
I mostly play cover songs, as those get the best response. People often remark how they loved the variety that I play. But I have a few originals, and I can always improvise instead of sticking to the cover tune, making it sound original. My solos are always improvised, so in that sense I play original music on every song.
I have a large amplifier to use in large spaces, as well as a wireless bluetooth speaker for beach shows or other fun but remote locations. I have a wireless microphone if you need the sax louder than it is on its own. The sax is quite versatile; I can play quietly or loudly, mellow or upbeat.
Of course, but I am never late. I would give back your payment 100% if something prevents me from coming, like illness or a car accident. Luckily that hasn’t happened, but I would call you immediately and look for alternatives. People say that I’m a clear, honest communicator, so you can rest assured that I will be there on time and let you know of any changes. No surprises.
I play solo shows for up to 3 hours. It’s more demanding than when I play in bands; when I play solo shows, I play the whole time. I usually play 60 minutes then then take a 15 minute break.
I have played thousands of shows, in large venues and small intimate settings. I will ask you your expectations and make sure I add even more than you’re expecting! I can read the crowd and adjust on the fly to your needs. I am flexible and understanding.
Live saxophone music livens up any party. It adds a flavor of jazz and excitement. The parties I get hired most for are wedding ceremonies, wedding breakfasts, wedding receptions, corporate events, birthday parties, fundraisers, dinner parties, cocktail receptions, and galas. I have also played bar mitzvahs, bat mitzvahs, anniversaries, barbecues, and quinceaneras.
