Paying sax with a DJ is really popular at the moment – funky house, dance, Hed Kandi tracks and classics like One Step Beyond can go down well at your wedding or party. Here are some shots from a couple of events from August!

I enjoyed playing at the evening reception of Carla and Bruno’s wedding on Saturday night – a lovely couple!

It’s Spring and the wedding season is in full swing! Get in touch if you are after some live music for your wedding/event/party and check out some of my videos either on here or on my Facebook page at facebook.com/jamesbellsax to hear me play and see me in action. I regularly play during wedding ceremonies, drinks receptions, wedding breakfasts and at evening receptions as well. Please contact me to discuss any aspect of your event.

I had a blast playing with the fantastic Lancaster-based function band Quay Change last night at Forrest Hills, just outside Lancaster, for a 60th Birthday party. I then made the short trek into town to the Apothecary Bar and Lounge where my jazz quartet, The Luca Brasi Four, played a late night gig from 11pm – 2am. We hope to play that slot again some time soon!

I had a fantastic day on Sunday at The Merewood Hotel speaking to lots of great couples and suppliers. The bookings are coming in thick and fast and I can’t wait to work with all the people I met over the course of the year!

If you’re in Garstang on a Friday night before Christmas I’ll be playing at Cobblers from 8pm every week. Good food, cocktails and live sax in an intimate setting in the heart of Garstang – see you there!

I’m looking forward to playing at Blue Bayou for the next three Saturday nights. Come down and try some of their great food and enjoy a night of live saxophone in Preston’s newest hangout!
