Mike Smith (saxophonist)'s Biography

Line up: Duo: Saxophone with Guitar or Piano
Trio: Saxophone with Guitar/Piano and vocals.

The smooth sound of saxophone will complement any drinks reception or corporate evening. Playing Soprano Tenor and Alto Sax Mike can adapt his performance to whatever style of music you have in mind. He has many years of experience performing for all kinds of social occasions and he can tailor his act to suit your needs.



Mike has played with many top artists including Craig David, Steve Winwood, Sandi Thom and Kid Creole and the Coconuts in the past year alone.

Since completing his debut album ‘Ginger Tunes’ in 2010 Mike has been playing gigs and jazz festivals up and down the country with his own aptly named "Ginger Tunes" Quartet. The album features his stylish signature writing and sound, described…this easy cool ounding and exquisite jazz soul travelogue glows in its Sanbornesque LA groove – blended with R&B and funkier counterpart part tracks it’s white soul fusion is a joy for the hips and the ears.

Featuring on a new album being released by a famous American Jazz label later this year (2011), Mike has recently been working with many of his idols including Tommy Barbarella, Randy Brecker, Stuart Hamm and Scott Henderson.

He will perform live to backing tracks or can add a female vocalist and Guitarist to make duo or trio options depending on your requirements.

"Mike Smith was a really good choice for our son’s 21st birthday celebration as it was a family and friends day time event and he fitted perfectly. It was good to be able to hear a short demo on line prior to booking as I had an idea of what his repertoire was and he certainly met all expectations.

I would certainly be happy to book him again if the situation required, but would also recommend the Agency for anyone else looking for acts."
