Mark Holder-Keeping
Saxophonist


Mark Holder-Keeping is a local entertainer who plays many instruments, but mainly the sax and clarinet.

He has compiled backings for all the pop/sax tunes that are usually asked for, has a neat small 400 watt vocal PA, and is friendly  and/ easy to deal with.

He has played in the past with "The Howlers" (rock covers), Cantolibre (latin/world music), Man Bites Dog (jazz), Hobo Jungle (blues), Zumpa and I Viagatore (Italian). He also has a degree in music.

He makes for a refreshing change from the traditional singer with guitar, and is particularly suited to functions where people want to talk without competing with the words of a singer. The material is also great for dancing to. Some of the more old fashioned material has been DJ/remixed to appeal to young and old. He is able to very quickly prepare specific pieces for special events (eg. bridal waltz, Christmas carols, belly dance, etc).
