To add that special touch to your event, consider incorporating the stylish sound of a solo sax, playing a selection of Jazz, Soul, Pop etc
As an experienced professional saxophone player, I can help create a sophisticated mood for your wedding, private party, corporate event. I can also set the ambience as your guests arrive at your event.
With over 18 years experience I have performed at garden parties, weddings, black tie events and many restaurants around Derbyshire. I take great pride in bringing a professional approach to every one of my engagements and to assist in any way I can to make your event something very special.
A standard performance consists of 2 x 45 minute sets with a nominal break in between. I am flexible on times.
I am able to provide music for the wedding breakfast, drinks reception ceremony (including signing of the register). If you would like me to create a Spotify play list between breaks to suit I am happy to arrange this with you.
Public Liability Insurance and equipment is PAT tested
The set list I have is. generalised set list. I am happy to get other tunes together with notice.
I have wireless microphone systems and a portable PA that allow me to move around the guests if you wish too add to the overall atmosphere. it also insures that if power is not available or the event is outdoors I can accommodate this situation.
Each event is very personal and individual and therefore should you consider booking me we can then discuss the finer detail to suit you.
Kevin was absolutely amazing! He couldn’t have been more accommodating and all of the guests loved him. We will absolutely be using him again!
Thank you so much for adding a special touch to the event.

Kevin played at my daughters wedding at Westmill venue in derby. It was a last minute decision to have saxophonist play at the ceremony and after reading Kevin's previous reviews we felt confident to book him. We'll what can I say but absolutely brilliant Kevin didn't disappointed, all the guests commented on his renditions of You'll never walk alone and the Wedding song which were fantastic and just as my daughter wanted there wasn't a dry eye in the place. Thank you Kevin
Kevin played at my mothers surprise 60th Birthday party as guests arrived. What can I say? He was absolutely fabulous! Before the event he was fantastic at keeping in touch and was so professional, helping us to choose the style of music, suggesting songs etc. On the day of the event Kevin arrived in excellent time to set up and played effortlessly and was a real delight to listen to. I only wish I’d known Kevin when I got married 3 years ago. I would highly recommend Kevin and can’t wait to plan another party so he can play for us again!
All good, a variety of songs played and a variety of genres to suit. Thank you Kevin.
"5 out of 5 - TOP CLASS
Kevin - was absolutely amazing. All my friends at the party - wanted ""More"".
I loved the way Kevin moved out to wherever the audience moved to - and played our last dance song a couple times as special memory for my husband and I - which got people up dancing in the garden too.
Would definitely without a shadow of doubt recommend Kevin Goodall for any event. You would not be disappointed.
GUARANTEED.
THANK YOU - KEVIN x"

Kevin played for us last night at our Golden Wedding party 23rd October 2021 and did us proud , he pitched the mood of the room just right and all our guests spoke highly about him Thanks again Kevin
I booked Kevin to play at my belated 60th Birthday Party 5th October 2021 He played fantastic saxophone at my house to greet guests and start the party. He then went over to the venue and played during the meal. Wow he was amazing and played a variety of music from dancing to easy listening. He played Happy Birthday and everyone sang along. Kevin you did me proud and what a fantastic day.
Kevin played at our wedding reception on the 2nd October 2021 part 2 after marrying over the covid period such an amazing reception celebrating with our family my guests were in awe of Kevin playing the saxophone, the guests absolutely loved every minute in which he was also very accommodating and professional absolutely amazing...
Where do I begin ? I messaged kevin about by wife’s birthday party and he replied almost instantly. We agreed a price the he asked for any special requests. My wife is a huge Billy Ocean fan so I asked if he could play that which he did brilliantly, my next request was fro Penny Lover by Lionel Richie as it was the first song we danced to, again great. Also on his rest period he played Billy Ocean songs on his P A. He was brilliant the whole time he was here having a laugh and a joke with our guests. First party after lockdown and Kevin made it a great party. My love of the saxophone never stops. All in all a great saxophonist and a lovely man. If you want a saxophonist book Kevin 👍👍👍👍👍👍 I don’t normally leave reviews but had to for kevin. He’s definitely the man to have.
"Amazing, highly recommend. I held a surprise party at home with an age range from 4yrs to 82yrs. Kevin played a range of music to suit all ages. My husbands favourite Bakers Street & Mr Blue Sky. A special request of Everly Brothers Dream which my 79yr father joined in by singing solo. A memory I will treasure for ever. Thank you Kevin for making the party
Kevin added that ‘special touch’ to our garden wedding party, we gave him the age range from 18 to 80 and his choice of music fitted perfectly, would thoroughly recommend
Very well done Kevin - all our wedding guests remarked how good you were - we all loved it - Many thanks
Kevin performed for us at a staff event with a 1920's / Peaky Blinders theme. It was a surprise for the staff and the feedback on the night and the day following was amazing. Kevin listened to our requests and fitted the theme perfectly, it was a great addition to our evening and really set everyone up for the night. We would definitely consider using Kevin for any future event - thanks again!
