Available to hire
Hi, I’m Andrew Denicola, a versatile saxophonist and flutist with a warm, collaborative approach to performing. My experience spans cruise ships, luxury venues, weddings, and high-profile conferences, where I bring energetic improvisation, precise ensemble tuning, and thoughtful programming to every show.
I thrive on teamwork, leadership, and adapting sets to fit themes and spaces. When I’m not on stage, I enjoy arranging original pieces, coordinating with event planners, and exploring new textures that blend jazz roots with contemporary styles.
