Jimmy Sax

On November 5, 2027, at the Opéra Berlioz in Montpellier, Jimmy Sax arrives with a live show designed for dancing, where the saxophone leads the rhythm. A French saxophonist and composer, classically trained and a multi-instrumentalist, he has developed a language that sits between melodic house, deep house, instrumental pop and echoes of jazz. Memorable melodic themes, extended improvisations, and dialogues with the audience: his set moves like a living DJ set, where the sax’s breath embellishes the layers and the kicks. On stage, Jimmy Sax plays tension as much as nuance, building the pulse before opening up into airier spaces, and alternating lyrical lines with rougher, grittier phrasing. His concert leans toward the club while preserving the presence of a live instrumentalist—a format in which the drop answers the chorus and electronic energy rubs up against acoustic texture. An evening conceived for movement, driven by generous playing and constant interaction with the room.
