Often January and February are quiet for us wedding saxophone players but not so this year! Charlotte and Rebecca got in touch via Instagram for me to play their 25th Birthday Party just outside of Harlow.
It was still at a point in the year where it was unpleasantly cold to go outside so I was looking forward to having a pretty contained crowd to play to as. I was not disappointed! Rebecca and her family had a bespoke club complex at the bottom of their garden, complete with bar, lighting rig and mood lighting! On top of my normal selection of tunes, they wanted quite a lot of Ibiza-style sax and club remixes which were a blast to play!
I more often get hired to be a wedding saxophone player so it was really enjoyable to play to a tight-knit group of family and friends who were just keen to have a really good time. As a big bonus, Rebecca, Charlotte and all their guests were incredibly appreciative and made me feel hugely welcome. It was an excellent night for everyone involved!
Nick Pike was amazing from start to finish! When we first contacted him, we were a little apprehensive as we had some quite specific ideas about what kind of set list we wanted. Nick was really helpful as he was easy to contact and he was extremely keen to make sure that our set list was exactly what we wanted. He sent through some samples and we chose our favourites from those. He even learnt a few extras that we had specially requested like the nodding dog! On the day of the party, Nick arrived in plenty of time and was flexible in fitting his sets around other parts of the party, so that everybody could enjoy his music properly. Although we didn’t need them, Nick offered the use of his speakers between sets to keep the party going, which would be really handy if you didn’t have your own. Nick joined right in with the party vibe and really made the night. Every single guest mentioned how much they had enjoyed hearing him play. I would 100% recommend him! - Rebecca George, 2024
