Testimonial

Ever since the first time I played a Theo Wanne mouthpiece I’ve been captivated by the big sound I get with so little effort and minimal fatigue. Theo Wanne pieces give me a big sound but more importantly, it’s still MY SOUND.

Biography

Adrian Crutchfield is known around the world for his neo-soul sound – creating music in a variety of genres such as jazz, R&B, pop, funk, soul, hip hop, and fusion; all of which can be heard on his 2017 album entitled “LEAP”! Much like Adrian’s first album “Private Party”, “Leap” showcases Adrian’s passion for variety and freedom in music. “Leap” is what the contemporary instrumental music world has been waiting for. An album iwth no genre, no boundaries, and no limitations! Adrian’s star began shining at the age of four when he received his first saxophone during a concert in Roanoke, Virginia from acclaimed jazz artist Kenny G; who noticed Adrian’s interest from the audience, stopped the show, and invited him to the stage, playing a childish melody, and finally bestowing the sax to young Adrian. Known as the LAST horn-man to perform and record (2012-2016) with Prince and The New Power Generation, Adrian is featured on many of Prince’s final masterpieces including the “Art Official Age” album, the un-released but highly anticipated “Black Is The New Black” album, and the 2017 Grammy-Nominated “HIT-N-RUN Phase 2” album. Adrian has also had the privilege of performing with many of todays brightest stars such as Lionel Richie, Bette Midler, Ceelo Green, R&B icon Anthony Hamilton, Fantasia Barrino, KC and JoJo, Adina Howard, Regina Belle, and with hip hop superstar Young Jeezy. In jazz, Adrian has been featured by names such as Kim Waters, Mike Philips, Alex Bugnon, Jeff Lorber, and Branford Marsalis; and with legendary groups such as Fourplay and The Gap Band featuring Charlie Wilson. Adrian is a 2008 graduate of Florida State University (B.A. in Music with a concentration in jazz, contemporary media, and commercial music). Although young, this saxophone aficionado is one of his generation’s most prolific and successful professional musicians.
