Types of Services
Band Sit Ins
I’m available to hire for bands and fellow musicians who need a dedicated saxophonist, pianist, flautist, vocalist, or melodica player.
In addition to an extensive memorized repertoire, I can sight‑read music and improvise with ease.
Whether you’re putting together a one‑off gig or a longer run, I bring a professional, collaborative approach and a deep love of live performance.
Venues
I partner with venues and event spaces that want live jazz — as a solo act, duo, or full quartet — to create a sound that adds both ambience and energy to the room.
My set lists are always evolving, so each performance feels fresh while still matching your venue’s atmosphere.
For every engagement, I also support promotion by creating custom marketing assets and sharing the event across social media and MusicLocal.org/Tallahassee to help increase visibility and attendance.
Private Events
Elevate your weddings, galas, and celebrations with the musical artistry of Rhys Bennett, available as a featured soloist, intimate duo, or full ensemble.
From crafting custom arrangements for your most meaningful moments to delivering favorites from a vast jazz library, I ensure the music resonates with your vision.
Whether you’re after the sophistication of smooth jazz, the spark of bebop, or the romance of classic crooners, I’ll deliver a polished live performance tailored to your celebration—captivating every guest from start to finish.
