I am a professional saxophonist in the Atlanta area. I perform frequently with wedding bands, party bands, jazz ensembles, wind ensembles, jazz combos, and duos. I have a degree in Music Performance (jazz performance) and Music Education from Kennesaw State University. The performing ensembles that I offer are a jazz quartet (saxophone, guitar, bass, and drums), a soul and R&B quartet (saxophone, guitar, bass, and drums), a jazz trio (saxophone, guitar, and bass) a jazz duo (saxophone and guitar), and I also do solo work.
The Kwame Paige Quartet did not disappoint. We hired the group for a Mardi Gras party to offer jazz music. People were dancing and when we crowned the King and Queen, the whole group played a special tune for their dance.
Several people asked for a card because they were so great. I would absolutely recommend this quartet for your next event. They were awesome. More, they showed up on time, were polite and friendly, and didn't leave a mess. Everything went as planned. Bravo!
Kwame and his crew did such a great job at my wedding. Communication was spot on from the beginning. Very professional.
They were so professional and extremely nice. My family and I would recommend them for small or large events. Great musicians!
Kwame and his band were simply amazing. I had some specific requests for songs that I wanted played during my ceremony and cocktail hour. Kwame and his band executed them perfectly and my guests LOVED the music. Thank you so much!
I was so very pleased with the sound of the saxophone and guitar and the mood that was set for my daughter's wedding ceremony this past weekend at the Barnsley Garden's Resort. Kwame was everything I wanted and more. I had so many compliments on the music and I would definitely recommend him and his group to everyone!
Our family and I are grateful we chose Kwame. The music was on point and all of our instructions were followed to a T. Will definitely be using Kwame and his band again!
Kwame and his group were outstanding in every area. We couldn't have selected a better group. Everyone there was very pleased with their performance. We will highly recommend them in the future.
