A Personal Recommendation from a Working Magician As a magician performing at weddings, restaurants, cocktail bars, and corporate events, I’m often asked for recommendations on other entertainers who can truly enhance an event. One name I’m always happy to suggest is Craig Henderson, a professional saxophonist based just outside the Chichester area. Having seen him perform in a variety of settings, I can confidently say he brings something special to every event he’s part of.   Versatile Music to Suit Any Moment One of Craig’s biggest strengths is his versatility. Whether you’re looking to create a relaxed, elegant atmosphere or something more upbeat and engaging, he can tailor his performance perfectly. For drinks receptions or wedding breakfasts, his easy listening jazz sets provide a smooth, sophisticated backdrop. It’s the kind of music that enhances the atmosphere without overpowering conversation—ideal for setting the tone. Familiar Covers That Connect with Guests If you want to bring a more interactive and lively feel to your event, Craig also performs well-known covers that guests instantly recognise. These familiar tunes help create a shared experience, lifting the mood and keeping energy levels high without being intrusive. It’s a great way to bridge the gap between background music and full entertainment. Bringing Energy to Evening Celebrations When the evening party begins, Craig can take things to the next level. As a backing musician alongside a DJ or live band, his saxophone adds a dynamic and exciting edge. Live sax over a DJ set or band performance creates a real “wow” factor—something your guests won’t just enjoy, but remember long after the event.   Proven Experience at Quality Venues Craig may not have a huge online presence, but he’s steadily building a strong reputation where it matters most—live performances. He’s a regular at Newtown House Hotel for their popular summer music sessions and has performed at beautiful venues such as Froyle Park. These are well-regarded locations that demand quality, and Craig consistently delivers. He’s certainly no stranger to performing and brings confidence and professionalism to every event. Professional, Reliable and Fully Equipped From a practical point of view, Craig is incredibly easy to work with. He is fully self-contained, providing his own professional PA system, and all equipment is fully PAT tested for complete peace of mind. For event organisers and venues, this means a smooth, hassle-free setup and one less thing to worry about on the day.
