If you're looking for the perfect music for your wedding, private party, corporate event, Christmas party, funeral, or grand opening, look no further. I play soprano, alto, and tenor sax, and EWI (Electronic Wind Instrument). My styles vary from jazz standards up to funk, with everything in between. Imagine the love songs you know, heard on a smooth mellow saxophone. I'm very flexible, and would love to provide the music for your event! I am based out of Fredericktown, MO.
Contact me, and you will get a quick response, usually within 2-8 hours.
** Due to schedule constraints, I will need at least a 14-day notice for bookings.

I would 100% recommend him and request his service again. Thank you Gerry!

Gerry was such a pleasure to work with, he is professional and an excellent Saxophone Player.
He arrived on time, set up and played for the time I had booked him for. My guest were so impressed and at times I forgot it wasn't listening to Smooth Jazz radio, because he mixed it up with a little R&B and Pop. I will definitely book him again and again and again. Thanks GIG salad for your service.
Response from Gerry Huggins - Saxophonist:
Thank you so much Deborah! It was a pleasure performing at your event, and definitely let me know for future events.
Gerry performed at my family reunion on June 16, 2018, and he was phenomenal! He was prompt, professional, and performed perfectly! All of my family enjoyed his playing, and some wanted to book him for future events. Gigsalad is awesome, and I'm happy to see that the entertainment is top notch as well. Thank you Gerry, and I'm sure I'll be in touch. Have a great day!

Thank you, Gerry, for making our wedding ceremony and reception so special. Your music created a lively, romantic atmosphere for everyone. Every single guest had something wonderful to say about you. It brings tears to my eyes when I think back to walking down the aisle as you played The Wedding Song by Kenny G. We can't thank you enough for playing at our wedding. I highly recommend you book Gerry Huggins for your next big event. You will not be dissapointed! :)

March 5, 2011 was a beautiful day in the Marina to celebrate a seven year anniversary as well as my birthday. I came across Gerry on this website and listened to his music and knew he would be the right saxophonist for the job. Communication was fair. He was very good about returning messages and leading up to the event, I felt comfortable that things had fallen into place. I really appreciate all he did to help make my vision come together and the compliments were non stop. May God Bless You and keep up the great work.

Expect an energetic, positive show, filled with the smooth sounds of the saxophone, from the romantic, smooth jazz styles up to the funk-styled dance music. Each show would be unique to what the audience desires.
At age nine, Gerry Huggins began to explore the musical world with his saxophone. His talents with his sax won him the Outstanding Musician award in senior year of high school. Huggins attended Cal State University and received a BA in Communications. While studying, he continued playing his saxophone at Bakersfield College. This earned him two Most Outstanding Musician awards in the Bakersfield College Jazz Ensemble. In addition, he won two Outstanding Soloist awards for his appearances at the Fullerton College Jazz festival. His love for music turned professional during the mid 90s. He was invited to record with the local band, "The Pleasure Merchants" in their sophomore album, "Rhyme or Reason". Following that, he began playing for a variety of local bands, including "Thee Majestics", "T.O.S.B (The Old School Band)", and "The Rhythm Kings". After collaborating with keyboardist Darnell Gholston, he realized that his true passion was smooth jazz and R&B. Funk, jazz and old school styles are also among the genres Huggins exceeds in. His technique also can stretch from classical to big band. His debut album, "Ocean Breeze" was released in 2002; only to be followed by "A Very Special Christmas" in 2005 and "From the Heart" in 2007.
All I need is access to an outlet, as my setup consists of one speaker, and from there I am able to feed in my background tracks. I also have a setup for performing in areas that do not have electricity.

Varies by the event. With advanced notice (preferably one month notice), I can perform virtually any song that is requested.
My biggest influence is saxophonist Gerald Albright, but I also have roots in the Old School bands from the 70's (Earth Wind & Fire, Isley Brothers, Tower of Power, etc). All of these grounds helped shape my sound.
