Solo Sax - Jazz

As a Sax player, Bryne is second to none. As a live performer his personality and musicianship never fail to win over a crowd. And when Bryne steps up to the microphone to "just blow," fellow musicians love to listen. The influence of Kirk Whalum and David Sanborn contribute to a unique technical style all Bryne's own, while playing in Church left him with the ability to play from the heart. Bryne's music contains that rare combination of craftsmanship and soul that delights purists and satisfies the sax lover in all of us.
