Eric Giles, SalvationSax

Eric did an awesome job. The guest's really enjoyed his performance.

We hosted a 50th Wedding Anniversary Celebration for our parents and wanted to add a special touch. Mr. Giles was that person. He was excellent. The music was great, his stage presence was on point, and he answered all communication in a timely manner. Do not hesitate to book—you’ll be glad you did.

Eric is a true professional among professionals. He's on time, easy to work with and incredibly skilled. I recently worked with him at a multicultural variety concert where Eric performed a solo saxophone set. He performed excellently and remained engaged with the crowd from beginning to end. I would absolutely recommend him And I personally look forward to working with him in the future!

SalvationSax performed for our subdivision’s annual Evening Under the Stars. He was absolutely phenomenal! We had the crowd up and dancing. We look forward to having him back next year.

Eric’s talent is truly spectacular. He played during our charity event. He was friendly and personable while being professional. I definitely recommend Eric and plan on hiring him again.

great and professional entertainment

My husband hired Eric to play for a private birthday dinner and he was awesome! He showed up and showed out while maintaining his professionalism! He has a very good spirit, vibe, and all around fun guy! He played every song we requested and did an amazing job! I really enjoyed listening and dancing to his sounds! Will hire again!! 5 stars in my book!

Words cannot express the excellent job he did. He was very professional and a great, great musician. Hands down he felt like family. And I would only hire Eric for my events. My family is forever grateful!!! Thank You

Eric did a great job at our event! We really enjoyed the way he interacted with the crowd, was flexible with our music requests, and was a great fit for the overall vibe of the party.

We had the pleasure of having Eric perform at our event on July 9, 2024, at the Rice Center, and he did a phenomenal job. His talent and skill with the saxophone, as well as other instruments, truly brought the event to life.

From start to finish, Eric's performance captivated the crowd and created an incredible atmosphere. His musical versatility and ability to connect with the audience made the evening unforgettable.

From our first conversation Eric and I jelled. It was like I was talking to a close friend that was determined to make my wife’s celebration special. Eric exceeded that, he made it a night my wife, myself and our guests will remember for a very long time. It was over the top FABULOUS!!! Your playing and performance was unbelievable! Thanks again! Mr Harris

Guest's thoroughly enjoyed Eric's renditions. He has a unique and artful way of complementing the DJ.
Highly recommended!

I recently hired Eric to perform for a private event, and I couldn't be more impressed with his performance. He played multiple saxophones and the flute, showcasing incredible talent and versatility. From the moment we discussed my requirements, must haves, and wants he listened attentively and delivered exactly what I wanted. His professionalism, courtesy, and responsiveness were evident throughout the entire process. Eric truly enhanced the atmosphere of the event, and I highly recommend him to anyone seeking a top-notch musician.

Great performance. He was very professional and kind.

Eric was not only extremely professional, easy to work with and highly personable; he was a true crowd pleaser. Everyone raved about his performance. I would highly recommend and look forward to working with him again for future events.

He was able to play alongside the DJ and blended in smoothly! I highly recommend him! Eric was a great surprise for my mother’s birthday party and she enjoyed every second of it

Eric turned our holiday party event into an experience. The way he played the saxophone spoke to our souls. He knows a plethora of songs from all genres of music. His outgoing personality allows him to work the room in an amazing way. Simply put, Eric is an amazing saxophonist and would be an asset to any event.

My family and I had the absolute pleasure of experiencing a phenomenal New Year's Eve performance by the incredibly talented Mr. Eric Giles.

Beyond the musical brilliant, Mr. Giles, professionalism and charismatic stage presence added an extra layer of enjoyment to the evening. His performance wasn't just a backdrop; it became an integral part of our New Year's Eve celebration elevating the entire experience.

Eric was SPECTACULAR. He was very entertaining. He worked that sax and flute. My family is still talking about how great Eric was.

Loved how he played and he was so fun to hang out with. Didn’t matter what genre of music he played along with it and so fascinating that he can have such talent

Would honestly give Eric Giles and his wife, more then 5 stars if that was an option. Went to my sister's house for New Years Eve party, she had hired Eric Giles as her performer for the evening, he was much,much more then a performer, he took control of the event and gave, my entire family a true night to remember. There was non-stop dancing all night long! As a matter of fact we have been talking about the party ever since!

What an AMAZING night of music with the Uber Talented Eric Giles. Eric performed at my wedding anniversary/NYE event and tore the house down! He reads the audience and can play ANYTHING! He caters to every genre of music. age group, etc. Eric plays multiple instruments and is just so amazingly TALENTED! And oh what ENERGY! My family and friends can't stop talking about how much fun they had listening to Eric perform. If you're looking to take your event to the next level with a memorable night of live music, then look no further than Mr. Eric Giles!

Eric did a great job making everyone feel comfortable, joking with all of the guests , and he was also able to play his saxophone (VERY well) over music we all know and love. Thank you and your sweet wife for spending the new year with us! God bless

I left one review but when you wake up the next day still jamming! You know the music was amazing. Eric is beyond AMAZING. His personality, his engagement with the crowd had people on their feet. THANK YOU ERIC

The literal goat.

Mr. Giles provided a superb selection through different instruments! The tone Mr. Giles set was wonderful for the occasion! Thank you for sharing your talents with us! I’ll be sure to share your information with others blessings always! Merry Christmas Mr. Giles!

Nice soothing melody’s played ever so smoothly from those instruments. Just a complete vibe floating of melodies as we entered the room or just walking by. Great job and a great time was had! Thank you 😊

Eric was so Amazing!!! He was so professional and engaging to us. He really had us Ladies going. We danced, sang and had a really good time. He really Blessed our event!

He was very friendly. I really appreciate how he interacted with us

The musician was pleasantly accommodating with the music he chose for our event!!! He easily played to the different genres of music that we chose. He assisted us by providing music for our game of choice…Name that Tune!!! It was a joy to have a multi- faceted, musically diverse, talented musician playing for our Christmas party!!! If you haven’t heard him play, you’re missing out on a wonderful experience!!!

I had the pleasure of hearing him play at a Christmas party this past weekend and he was amazing! Any song, any genre, he knew it all!

Giles was phenomenal..We loved every minute of it. He was engaging, fun, and oh so professional.
It was a Holiday Celebration and as one of the attendants stated "It was a vibe". He will definatley be our go to..

Salvation Sax is a talented musician and very professional. He arrived on time, performed nonstop during his scheduled time and blended well with my guest. Everyone loved his performance and I will book him again. He also played multiple instruments.

Eric is an astounding musician and saxophonist. His performance was beautiful. Eric is professional and punctual.

We have requested this musician on a number of occasions to perform for the parents at our school. His versatility with not only his instruments, but his song selection has made us requested him numerous times. He is truly magnificent!

Eric played at our holiday Christmas party and he was amazing. We received so many compliments throughout the night on music. He was easily the best decision of the night and would highly recommend him!

Eric did an amazing job at our Father’s 60th birthday. All of our guests enjoyed it and he was very easy to work with. My Dad is very pleased.

Eric played for my mother's birthday party. Everyone had wonderful things to say about the music. He was excellent.

Very professional services

Eric’s saxophone performance at my 50th birthday dinner was a highlight of the evening. His talents and ability to play multiple instruments made for an unforgettable night. Everyone enjoyed your playing and said how great he was. Eric was very personable which made him a pleasure to work with. He was attentive to my personal request and incorporated some some of his jazz preferences too making it feel truly personalized. Thank you Eric for helping to make my birthday celebration a success! If you’re looking to elevate your evening with a musical genius, Eric is undoubtedly the musician to choose,

What amazing music for an even more amazing fall evening. His jazz is so smooth it pares well with a nice Pinot noir and a fire pit. He made the evening magical with his playful notes.

Eric of Salvation Sax graced us with his gift on 10/22/23 at a formal event and he did AMAZING!! We thought he would only play the saxophone but he pulled out the flute and went to town!! We will definitely book him again! He was very professional throughout the entire process and delivered more than expected. Be sure to book Eric for your next event!

What a phenomenal night of jazz in the fall! Eric raised the bar for my family/friends on this one! Truly magical, stellar and one to remember. HIGHLY recommend Eric for any occasion! The cream of the crop!

Eric was hired for our jazz fall family/friends gathering at our house. He was absolutely amazing! He took audience request and played multiple instruments and just made our night magical.

Smooth and hot sax playing And to hear him change from flute to sax and back was unreal. You don't play those 2 instruments the same way! And he played for a solid 3 hours. If you are looking for some great music from a talented musician, I highly recommend him.

Eric is very professional and client oriented. He is very personable and connects with his audience. Furthermore, he loves to share his immense God given talent, that shows very clearly in the manner which he plays three (3) saxophones! Did I say three (3) saxophones? Eric, ....."Take Five".

An amazing musician! He played multiple instruments and played great songs.

Eric had an amazing performance at a private event! A wonderful time. Performed any requests and was engaging as well.

Talented, timely and the customers loved it! Will book him again as he also interacted well with people and was quite gracious with requests. Well prepared with his own background music, well dressed and generally appears to love what he does!

Eric left a lasting impression on me as he is a humble young man and very talented musician. He really helped our event go to the next level of excellence. Even the people servicing our event were impressed and enjoyed the entertainment. He welcomed my two college students to join him on their trombone and trumpet. I really got more than I expected from him and it made my responsibilities as a host so much easier. He honored song requests and played music from the era we desired. He also provided a helping hand with equipment, a real gentleman. He’s family now. 😊

My family hired this musician for my grandparents’ birthday celebration. He was very professional, but his musicality brought a warmth to the room. I play trombone and was able to improvise with him and we blended well even though it was our first time playing together. He is literally a Jack-of-All trades and didn’t put a limit on genre. I am surely hiring for my next event.

As a wedding planner it was an absolute pleasure to work with Eric this past weekend. He is a very talented professional and did a fabulous job for our wedding ceremony music! The guests were very impressed with Eric and our mother of the bride felt like she had made the perfect choice in choosing him for the wedding.
I agree!

Eric is truly AWESOME!!! He is very talented in playing multiple instruments. I had so many guests compliment him both young and old. He can play any type of music you want literally. More importantly, he was dependable, easy to talk to and a true JOY to work with him. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND him for any event. You will not be sorry. Your guests will truly be entertained.

Mr. Giles was such a great saxophone player music was excellent the transition of music was smooth I would recommend him highly.

Eric was amazing! He played not only the saxophone but several other instruments as well. He was super kind and professional. I’m very pleased with the service he provided and I will definitely utilize his services again.

Everything was perfect. From the booking process to the event. The vibe was just right. Eric made sure he knew exactly what we envisioned and made it happen. Everyone loved every moment! Will definitely book again!

Magnificent

Eric was our first choice for playing jazz saxophone at my Buckhead Real Estate Investment Mixers due to the professional quality of his musical talent but also just the seamless effort of incorporating him into our events. He sets up quickly & efficiently with all the equipment he needs based on the environment, and has always been in a positive state of mind to rock it! Even with minor changes to the event schedule last minute.

I’ve also invited him to play informal gatherings, and of course…He followed through on the same quality that brought joy to everyone. He even played along to other genres of music outside of jazz and took song requests! And for the songs he plays along to outside of jazz, he plays so well that it makes one begin to wonder “Why isn’t a saxophone or a flute already a part of the song with this guy?! It just sounds better!!”.

That all said, I’m looking forward to the next time we get the privilege of hearing his immense talent.

Delicious music

Eric was such a pleasure to have at my vow renewal ceremony. He played all the songs as requested and even went above and beyond what was promised by the end of my ceremony. He is such a pleasure to work with and extremely personable and professional. I highly recommend.

Professional

Eric was the ultimate professional and his services made my wedding day and dinner one I will never forget. My guests were all complimentary of how his music added a memorable element to so many priceless moments. I will be recommending him to everyone I know!

High level of professionalism. Eric is very responsive. Showed up early and played the entire time. Very talented, basically like a live concert level of sound. Students and staff alike were very entertained. I highly recommend Eric for any event that needs entertainment. Eric is very personable and sensitive to the client needs as well. 5 star service. I have zero complaints.

Eric was kind and friendly. On time, did a great job. He could play anything, or take any requests we had.
I would absolutely do this again.
Great guy!!!!!😊

Mr. Eric Giles aka Salvation Sax is awesome! Talented beyond words. His entertainment weaves in special music requests with a story prior to listening and dancing to the melodious tunes of the alto, soprano, or tenor saxophone. He’s been a special surprise addition to both of my parent’s birthday celebrations and wedding anniversary. Will hire him again and have recommended him to family and friends.

Eric's music and personality created a special and personalized anniversary event for an amazing couple! Glad to have been a part of it.

I booked Eric in South Korea for my sorority’s annual Jazz-n-Jeans event. He traveled with other musicians to our location and ensured we had everything we needed prior to the event. Communication and consideration was beyond excellent. Everyone who attended was pleased with the selections they rendered and we decided to book him (solo) for our signature Emerald Ball. Needless to say, he showed out (again). Had he not returned to the States, we would have booked him for more events!
Now, I’m that I’m back stateside, I plan to book him for my grandparents’ 75th birthday party.

Excellence is not close to what we experienced. Thanks, Eric!

SalvationSax was amazing. He provided me with everything I asked for and more. He has a great personality & he was engaged with the audience. He went above & beyond . He made my day special. I am very pleased with him and will call him to perform again.

He did a phenomenal job in capturing the vision I communicated for my mother's 70 Birthday celebration. He was very attentive, responsive, and in tune with the diverse needs of our guests. He over delivered and we were honored that he shared with us on that special day. I highly recommend his services.

Eric played at my father in law’s funeral and he brought beautiful moments through song during a challenging time in my family’s life. He is a true professional and extremely talented. I highly recommend him for any event!

Eric was great! Thank you for sharing your talent with us!

Outstanding performance. Blew us away

I invited SalvationSax to perform at my birthday last-minute, and he over-delivered. The tone of the night was communal and sensual. He brought a set of three saxophones and switched between them depending on the vibe. & he played the happy birthday song for me and all my friends say along. He came with his equipment and was didn't disrupt the space. I would 1000% book with him again. Thank you so much for making my birthday special!

All of the attendees advised of how great you were. I enjoyed you as well. I enjoyed hearing the playback even more from all of the videos of the event the attendees sent me. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I appreciate the professionalism, the promptness, and execution of your one man band! I will for sure recommend, and use for future events!

Thank you Eric for an amazing night of music and entertainment. You are soooo professional and talented. Very kind and easy going. You worked so well with me to curate afrobeats music for my birthday. Guests loved you. Your music was the star of the night. Thank you for making my birthday phenomenal. Everyone is texting about how much fun they had.

Folks- if you need a saxophone player. Please don't think twice book him. You will NOT regret it.

He was great. He started a great vibe for the party

We hired Eric for our Annual HOA Holiday party. We were a group of about 100. Eric was very kind and professional and extremely talented. A very classy guy. He played the music we wanted to hear. Christmas jazz and lots of Motown, Earth Wind and Fire styles for dancing. We will definitely have him back!

I booked Eric for my grandmothers 80th birthday party! She has arthritis and terrible hip pain and hasn’t danced in years, but we figured she’d love to at least see the whole family having fun. We were expected a simple serenade but ERIC brought the house DOWN! I’ve never seen a party get so intense that everyone’s out of breath but still electrified with energy! I could easily say that the best part of the party was Eric just playing the music, but the BEST part was that he made my grandma get up and cha-cha for the first time in years, we all cried!

Will be booking him for every occasion that he’s available for! If you’re trying to decide between Eric or some other player, do yourself a favor and acknowledge that THIS is your SIGN!

He was awesome! I'm speechless.

Eric, the man! Would highly do business with again no hesitation. Not only did he perform but he outdid aswell — Need I say much?

Salvation Sax showed up and showed out! I will be booking him again.

Could not recommend SalvationSax more! We had Eric play at our cocktail party and heard nothing but amazing things about having him. He was so talented and set the whole mood for the night. Highly recommend him!

He showed up on time dressed for the occasion. He played a wide genre of music that made my guests want to dance & jazz that made them say ahhh. Everyone loved him & are still talking about him. Would hire him again.

I have so many great things to say about salvation sax where can I start. He was a real crowd pleaser and I enjoyed the way he interacted with all my guests. I will definitely use him again.

Eric was on time to the venue. He performance was amazing. Guest was entertained and enjoyed themselves.

Book him now! Absolutely amazing. Arrived early. Was very accommodating with me wanting to have him as a surprise for my husband so he worked with me to make it happen. Professional and answered promptly. He took song request and surprised the party with how he could play any genre/artist. Everyone truly enjoyed not only the music which was spectacular but they loved him as person. There are people who are talented and good at their craft but it’s obvious that there is love and respect for music and making people happy. The entire party thought he was a family member that I asked to play for us and they were surprised when I said I found him accidentally on the internet. Book now!

We are beyond grateful for the professionalism and showmanship displayed by Eric recently at a funeral service. He was easy to work with and went the extra mile to make the celebration perfect. I highly recommend working with him!

Eric can literally play to ANY type of music. People think because he specializes in saxophone that he only plays jazz, but he can do that plus more: pop, R&B, country, hip hop, gospel, Afrobeats, dancehall, Latin American music, EDM, Christmas songs, EVERYTHING! And he does it exceptionally well. I've seen him perform at multiple events and he always matches the tone of the event, or even plays a hand in adding to it, like getting partygoers to come out and dance or having a family share a sweet moment with their loved ones. He's very professional, always EARLY and is always fully prepared with his own equipment. He takes song requests from guests (if it's appropriate for the event), which always makes the event more fun and special and makes guests feel more included. He really is a one-man band who can do it all!

Eric Giles played at a speaking event for us as background music and throughout the speech. He did a great job of matching the vibe in the audience as people answered into the room. During the speaking sessions he played from the stage during a timer for flexion that was catered towards the talk. His songs selection were well placed and volume was very comfortable for the mood.
Mr. Giles was very easy to work with, for set up and also problem shooting anything that came up. We would definitely hire him again for multiple future events.

Eric is an exceptional musician. He’s skilled at improvising, and he knows how to connect with an audience. His sax solos are top-tier and always get the crowd going. I’ve worked with Eric on multiple occasions. He’s extremely professional and has an extensive repertoire.

Eric was professional, he arrived early to set up and was pleasant to interact with before the event. During my birthday party he created an environment that was very postive and upbeat and my guests enjoyed his interactions them, including karaoke/freestyle. He was polite with everyone but didn't draw too much attention upon himself and maintained his professionalism throughout the event. I cannot speak more highly of Eric than to say that I will be definitely hiring him for future events and would immediately recommend him to anyone seeking live artistic entertainment.

I've had the pleasure of utilizing Eric's talent at least twice during our professional relationship, and I can say, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that he is one of thee most professional and talented musicians that I've ever worked with.
As a DJ in Korea I was occasionally tasked with booking additional talent for events. For at least two events - that I recall - I had Eric come in and play alongside local DJs. Eric was always on time and prepared with all of his equipment and any necessary accessories. He worked well with the other DJs and, on occasion, other musicians.
Where Eric shines is in his flexibility with music. DJs play a variety of music, and Eric brought an additional spark to the events through his talent and ability to improvise.
He works well within any genre of music; which not only highlights his ear for music, but also his knowledge of music. He is truly a student of the game.
No matter the event, corporate or personal, I would highly recommend Eric Giles to take your event to the next level. He is vibrant and personable and would make a wonderful addition to any event.

Eric’s presence is always an amazing vibe and great addition to any event. He’s definitely my go to guy when it comes to live music.

Eric was an excellent addition to our wedding. Super professional and responsive in the planning stages and truly elevated our cocktail and dinner hour with his style and performance. We loved having him & would 100% recommend him for any event.
