Houston Sax DJ

• Timely and fast set up. I will arrive at your venue about 45 mins before your event starts to get set up. Set up is typically quick and easy. All you need to provide is 1 standard power and adequate space (6x6' for live jazz and and 10x6' for DJ).

• Tunes that will deliver whatever effect you are looking for. From soulful ballads to upbeat funk and pop, I will provide your event with a mix of music that will ensure your guests enjoy their experience.

• A typical live jazz performance consists of solo jazz saxophone performing with professional background tracks in the style of your choosing. From Jazz/Blues to Soul/R&B and even pop tunes, I've got you covered. My equipment is wireless which allows me to walk around and engage with the crowd when appropriate.

**Business Experience**
As a veteran sax player and DJ, I have provided special events across the country with five-star live music experiences for more than 15 years. My exceptional musical experiences come at affordable prices and include top-of-the-line audio equipment as well as the ability to create any atmosphere you desire for your event. While I can meet and exceed your music needs for any event of any size, my most popular offering is a Full Wedding Day Package, that includes music for an ENTIRE wedding day from start to finish.

Customer service and professionalism is paramount. From the moment of initial contact and booking all the way through the end of the event, each and every client is valued, respected, and treated as I would want to be treated...and I set the bar high.

**Musical Background**
As a Music Business graduate of the University of Houston's Moores School of Music Zach was fortunate to be able to study with international saxophone performance and recording artist Woody Witt, and be a member of the University's Jazz Orchestra under the direction of Noe Marmolejo. Other studies during his tenure at U of H took place at the university's nationally top-rated Bauer School of Business where he studies sales and marketing. Prior to arriving at U of H, Zach studied under popular Houston jazz saxophonist Martin Langford and Doug Skinner of Texas State University in San Marcos.

Zach has extensive experience performing as a solo artist as well as part of jam bands, big bands, jazz combos, wind ensembles, and smaller chamber ensembles at venues large and small. Zach has been fortunate to work with some of the finest talents the music industry has to offer from Texas to the New England states and Los Angeles. He's shared studios with producers, engineers and musicians responsible for the success of Jason Mraz, Lifehouse, Prince, Usher, and more. Performing in a variety of different groups has placed him on stage with some of the greatest of today's musicians including jazz greats Bill Evans, Vincent Herring, Conrad Herwig, and Jon Faddis as well as popular artists Edwin McCain, Green River Ordinance, Lucinda Williams, and more. Zach has performed on large stages like House of Blues and Hard Rock Cafe as well as smaller jazz clubs, major television networks like FOX, ABC, and CBS, and radio stations in South Texas and surrounding areas.

An endorser of Rovner Ligatures and Mouthpieces as well as RS Berkeley Musical Instruments, Zach now utilizes his talents providing up-scale private events with any type of music to meet their needs.

**Special Event Expertise**
I not only have extensive music industry experience, but I have also spent years as an event photographer and videographer. Spending years looking at special events from weddings to corporate events and more through these various creative lenses has provided me the ability to understand and provide an experience that is unique and special for each and every event. With hundreds of weddings and other special events under my belt, I guarantee you and your guests will enjoy their music experience or your money back.

All you need to provide is 1 standard power and adequate space (6x6' for live jazz and and 10x6' for DJ). I'll handle the rest.
