Paul Desmond

Paul is a master on saxophone, blending beautiful soft tones with crooner style vocals, but that’s just to warm you up.

He can also rock it up with the best of them… Everyone loves the sax!!!

His experience of performing in big bands and knowing his audience, allows him the freedom to really speak through his music, always delivering a first class performance.

Paul’s long standing musical career first began at the age of ten. It was the clarinet which first inspired him, followed by the baritone sax, flute, alto, tenor and soprano saxophones, all of which gave him the experience and opportunity to work in the “Brisbane Big Band”, “Glenn Miller Tribute Band” and “Swing Fever Big Band”.

Professionally, Paul has performed in various bands and duos over the years as a freelance vocalist and musician, while also maintaining a very successful solo career in the corporate market. Now an accomplished entertainer, Paul intuitively knows how to take his audience on a magnificent musical journey of discovery and times passed.

His knowledge and experience only compliments his natural talent. Studying all the great sax players throughout the years has certainly influenced his style and is evident in the light and shade both felt and heard in his playing, leaving his audience spellbound. Paul also brings another dynamic to the duo and trio with live percussion, which adds a fantastic visual and rhythmic flavour to ‘GEMINI’ and ‘FLOOR BURNERS’.
