Graham Robertson on SoundBetter

Engaging solos, powerful hooks, soul-stirring arrangements. Internationally touring professional saxophonist (alto, tenor & bari) with 20+ years recording experience. Performed, recorded, and released on record labels in the US and Europe (NYC, Chicago, DC, Amsterdam) with a multitude of touring bands in jazz, funk, soul, reggae, pop, rock & more.

Whether you’re looking to liven up your track with a soaring solo, some tasteful riffs, or a lush horn section arrangement, I always strive to bring your artistic vision to life and achieve 100% satisfaction. As a player, I take special pride in being a stylistic chameleon. My touring and recording career spanning everything from jazz and funk to indie pop and hard rock to reggae, soul, and R&B gives me the advantage of a wide-ranging musical vernacular that is ready-made for whatever project you have to offer.

I am highly proficient in online session work, having recorded and mixed dozens of singles, EPs, and full-length albums. First, I work with you to learn your creative vision and establish timelines and expectations. Next, I record in my home studio, bringing to life your pre-composed ideas or, if you wish, composing and arranging horn parts tailored to your creative direction. Once finished, I deliver you high-fidelity audio files in the format of your choosing, including both “dry” (pre-effects) tracks and, if you prefer, a “wet” version with some tasteful mixing effects.

I’m always happy to answer any questions you may have up front. Simply click “Contact” to send a message, and I’ll get back to you as soon as I’m able.

I look forward to working together!

    I worked with Graham on a track that needed some added saxophone arrangements. He did an amazing job bringing out the natural energy of the track. He gave me a few options to work with and was really timely in responding and sending over the music.Would definitely recommend him for anyone that needs a skilled saxophonist!

    Graham has helped me elevate several of my Hip-Hop / R&B / Afrobeats tracks with his top-tier saxophone playing. He always takes the time to fully understand what I'm looking for and immerse himself into the vibe of the songs, and consistently delivers features that go beyond my expectations. I appreciate how he keeps lines of communication open, sticks to our agreed schedules, and keeps the process collaborative by sharing drafts and ideas. Would highly recommend working with him!

    I’ve worked with Graham for many years in many musical projects. Jazz, Disco, Pop, R&B, Avant-Garde, no genre is off limits. Graham Robertson has elevated both my recorded material and live performances to new heights, with a focused and proactive approach to his work. Most importantly, he’s a pleasure to hang out with!
