Words cannot express the talent and efficiency of this musician .Babis integrity as a human and musician is out of this world .since 2006 he is the main saxophone player in the Tubescreamers band and has contributed in both the bands LP’s driving our blues rock rock n roll albums to another level.Ofcourse the same applies to every one of the hundreds of live gigs he has played as a member of the band.He’s approach and feel of every tune of ours is without exaggeration,out of this world!
Thus the title “maestro “is indisputable when it comes to Mr.Babis Prodromidis.

Babis recorder tracks for our second and third album and also joined us on stage for several live gigs (name of the band: MOTHER TURTLE). Excellent player, fast and efficient. Great sense of melody, top music reading skills. Also very down to earth person and easy to communicate with.
