Wedding Reception•Reviewed on August 16, 2024•From Somerset, VA
James f'ing ROCKS! We hired him as a last minute dream vendor and he was beyond accommodating, talented and honestly our entrance with James accompanying the DJ was like one of the highlights of the night. Truly, I felt like he kicked off the evening with good vibes. He is a master class artist and human. Hire him!!

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on July 13, 2024•From Maidens, VA
James provided great pre event communication, arrived promptly, despite the buckets of rain, and serenaded us with his jazz inspired saxophone renditions. He even stayed later than contracted to rap up things. He was attentive to the program and able to give us breaks as desired for personal reflects and acts throughout the program. He blended well with the crowd and was the added professionally elegant touch that we desired in celebration of our Pastor & First Lady’s 25th Anniversary all white soiree! I recommend him with the highest regard and look forward to working with him again, or visiting an event where he is performing.

I hired James to perform over dinner at my wedding, and he was awesome! I would highly recommend him for any event. Before the event, he sent me a list of songs to choose from, and he was very responsive. He showed up on time, was very professional, and the guests all loved him! He is exceptionally talented on the saxophone. He also coordinated seamlessly with our DJ ahead of the event, which was a big plus :)

Everyone loved James!! He was magnificent!!! I would strongly recommend James and look forward to having him play again at a future event. I have to honestly say that his performance has been the best that I have experienced and I've attended many events. If anyone is looking for an awesome saxophonist who can keep your guests of all ages entertained, James is your man! We are grateful to James for making this event for our Princess Sarafina( who was baptized and celebrated her 1st birthday) a memorable one!! Many thanks!!! Amy

Christmas Party•Reviewed on December 6, 2010•From Woodbridge, VA
Totally Flawless, Mr. Bjork is so professional and so accommodating. My guest was literally blown away with his performance of the sax. He played wonderful melodic melodies of Christmas and religious songs. Oh what a beautiful time. James is on the top of my list for any occasion. I feel like I hit the lottery when Mr. James Bjork came into my home and performed for 30 of my closest friends for a sit down meal, amazing. Don't even hesitate to select James for an event you will truly do yourself a favor just to have him. It was my honor and pleasure Mr. Bjork, Thank you

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on October 15, 2011•From Fredericksburg, VA
James Bjork did a wonderful Solo Saxophonist (with back up rhythm tracks) performance for our Surprise Birthday Party. He is thorough each step of the way. A bonus to us was in a review of the music for the night, he offered to bring his Clarinet for a portion of the performance. It was absolutely fantastic and a complete hit with the Guest of Honor! James Bjork's write up on gigmasters ~ the professional image, information and music samples online ~ all match who his is when he arrives! This is extremely important when you don't have an opportunity to just drop in on a performance to see for yourself. YES! We would book James Bjork again~without hesitation!

I could not ask for a better performer for our special day. Mr. Bjork was professional from our first conversation to the last. He was able to perform all of the songs that I requested and also gave incredible feedback on some of the music decisions.
Our guests were very impressed with Mr. Bjork's performance and he made my wedding day unforgettable. I would not hesitate to recommend Mr. Bjork to anyone.

Private Party•Reviewed on August 10, 2010•From Washington, DC
James, conducted himself in a professional manner all through the evening. The funniest moment of the evening was that the guest of honor didn't realize that James was performing live since she was seated with her back turn to him. She thought it was prerecorded music. Just shows high level at which James performs his craft. I wouldn't want anyone else to play at my events. James is humble, honests and always does a great job.
To all of you out there, if you don't hire James for your next event, you're missing out on something really special.
Thanks again James for raising the level of our evening.

Our medical practice engaged James Bjork for our Fall Open House. This is our signature event held bi-annually. We were looking to enhance the evening for our guests and thought a jazz saxophonist would be ideal to provide the background sound to the planned activities. We could not have been happier with our choice. James was professional, easy to work with, arrived early and wrapped up on time. He provided us with a song list in advance in case we wanted to make sure that certain favorites were played, and indeed they were that evening. He also brought with him a sound system, at no additional charge, to compliment his playing. In a word, he's "fantastic!"

I would highly recommend James Bjork. He was a true professional who was so easy to work with. When I walked into the reception and I heard him playing his saxophone...I knew I had made a great decision in hiring him. I would definitely hire him again. You can just tell that he likes what he is doing. His rates were very competitive.

To Anyone out there that's searching for a performer whom will dazzle a crowd of people from a large setting to a small intimate dinner please do yourself a favor, hire Mr. Bjork. This is my second year having him perform in my home for Thirty guest. They say a third time is a charm but I must say I have been charmed and dazzled on two joyous occasions. He is very accommodating, patient and simply a joy to make your dream occasion worth every penny. Myself and guest still highly request Mr. Bjork, so do yourself a favor, don't let your mind wonder and slip on one of the number one performers in the local area. Enjoy because he will dazzle you. Thanks Mr. Bjork

James was fabulous at setting the mood for the entire event, his musical tone and genious resonated throught out, in as much as we were receiving compliments from other events in the facility.
James is professional, punctual and courteous, his music was sweet sounding light and not overwhelming .
It would be my pleasure to make James our resident musician for all our events planned in the future. I would highly recommend James to any of my colleague's and friends without regret. I believe James is destined for greatness as a Jazz musician.

This is the 2nd time our business has used James Bjork. His sax playing provided the perfect background music for our open house. He is a very versatile performer...offering a variety of musical choices. We love his soft jazz selections. He arrived early to our event, setup quickly and began playing prior to our first guests arriving. He was fabulous. I would highly recommend James and give him a 5 star rating in all categories...professionalism, accommodating, talent and satisfaction.
