Thank you, I was an honor to play for your wedding. See y’all for the first year anniversary
WORTH EVERY PENNY!!! Definitely worth the booking! Made my wife’s birthday! EVERYONE SHOULD BOOK HIM
Response from Saxophonist Saxual:
Thanks, so much fun playing for you and your wife. What a beautiful breakfast you cooked, all while holding the baby. Happy. Valentine’s Day to you both
This was definitely worth every penny. He has an amazing sense of humor, in addition to his talented musical skills. I would highly recommend!
Played at seafood restaurant yesterday and completely blew us away with every song he covered . I am looking forward to hearing him play again.
He was very professional and my party ranted and raved about him!
The perfect surprise for our 80s Prom themed birthday party! Such a talented saxophonist and really wowed all my guests, they couldn’t stop talking about him the rest of the night! His performance really made my husbands birthday special. Thank you so much!
Rashad was amazing ! He definitly gave a game changing performance! He took the party to another level with his music , we look forward to hearing him play again!
He was amazing! We had a nine-piece band as the primary entertainment for the night, but wanted to have someone playing in a different part of the venue so that people would be entertained wherever they went. A lot of people would hang around his section of the venue just to listen to the saxophone, and when the main band was on a break, the whole party moved in towards him to dance as he played. His play was truly impressive, and he came dressed very sharply and was overall incredibly professional and easy to work with. Booking him was one of the best decisions we made for our event!
Everything was awesome! He called me ahead of time to discuss a set list and everyone enjoyed his entertainment. Very talented!
Response from Saxophonist Saxual:
Thanks, Heather! Your party was very fun indeed and I had fun playing for your friends and family. You have my number if you need any service, thanks for the card as well
Saxual and the Distinguishz Soundz band played for our annual dinner. They had the young and old on their feet. They made the evening truly special. You can’t go wrong with these professionals.
Response from Saxophonist Saxual:
Thank you, Alan, for the opportunity to perform you all and appreciate the support. Glad everyone enjoyed themselves.
We had Saxophonist Saxual perform at our holiday party and he made the party a huge hit. Amazing musician with great entertaining skills. My guests can't stop talking about him.
Saxual is excellent and came prepared and I would highly recommend his services as a class A performer.
Response from Saxophonist Saxual:
Thank you nice playing with you all
Great experience with Rashad and Pamela. They didn't just come and play, but really made the event special for us.
Response from Saxophonist Saxual:

Rashad Maybell is a native of Chicago, Illinois. When Rashad was 5, in the first grade, he wanted to play the saxophone after seeing an episode of “All That” on Nickelodeon. He saw a man playing saxophone, and it inspired him to do the same. However, his parents didn’t take him seriously; so, they made him wait until the 5th grade, before they allowed him to play the instrument. Once Rashad got his horn, the two were inseparable, and the rest is history!
Rashad graduated from Hillcrest High School where he received the Louis Armstrong and the Clark Terry awards for Jazz. He attended the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff where he received numerous awards, including Best Sax Section and Best Overall Freshman. He graduated from the University with a Bachelors Degree in Fine Arts.
While at the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff, Rashad took acting classes, learned how to operate stage lights, and became a member of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity Inc. After graduating college, Rashad went back home to Chicago where he started to play with a local band called “the Jevon Watson Experience.” They book 193 shows a year.
In addition to playing his music and acting, Rashad has also co-founded a brass band named “Gray Era Brass” who is building quite a reputation for themselves in Chicago and band performed on "Empire". Currently, Rashad is booking performances between Texas and Arkansas. He has been performing over 18 years.
Rashad now goes by the stage name of SAXUAL, a name that his very close friends and family came up with.
