Richard started playing the sax when he was 17 and has now been playing for over 30 years. He is very experienced and is equally at home playing Soul, Rock, Soft Jazz and Blues. He has played at many hundreds of weddings and social functions and is well-known in the south of England as a street entertainer, playing in numerous festivals and events both as a solo performer and with various bands.

He is very aware through experience that when playing background music for events that he keeps the volume and balance at a suitable level.

He plays with quality backing tracks through a small portable PA meaning that he can move around without need for mains electricity. This means that he can also play in the open air.

CAN ALSO BE BOOKED WITH GUITARIST MYLES for an extra option.

"Apologies we have taken so long in contacting you but please pass on our massive thank you to Richard! Unfortunately we didn't get to hear a great deal of Richard's huge talent as we were having our million and one photographs taken but so many of our guests have commented to us how good he was and what a nice touch it was to have him play on our special day. Many thanks for all the effort in making it happen."

"Dear Sarah-Jane, Thank you for your email. We had a magical day on Thursday and Richard’s contribution to that was really great. Everyone enjoyed the wonderful sound of his sax which added to the ambience for the party in the open air. We managed to have a few words with Richard before his departure to thank him in person. We will certainly recommend his services should the opportunity arise. Sep 2011"

"Just wanted to say thanks so much for sending along Richard and Miles to my party. They were terrific - everyone loved them. They gauged the music to match the people and the event really well and I am so glad I booked them. It turned out to be a lovely summer's evening in the end. They must have been exhausted having worked at another event all day and then travelled to us, but they gave no indication of that, so please say a big thank to them, and thanks to you as well for being so flexible weather wise etc., it meant a lot and I had a great evening. Yours, Nicola "
