Snake Davis has a unique style of playing that has been influenced by his love of Northern Soul music, King Curtis, Junior Walker and Michael Brecker.

Snake has a truly unique style, but if you take King Curtis, Michael Brecker and Junior Walker, mix them together and add a good pinch of soul music, you'd be close. Snake uses Yanagisawa 902 Saxophones to achieve his incredible tone.

The Brawby Boogie Package

A distance learning package created by leading UK saxophonist Snake Davis, aimed at saxophonists but equally at home with a multitude of instruments and therefore a popular piece for band practice.

Comprising of a Cd and 11 page booklet*, this is a no nonsense, practical workshop in simple melodic, jazzy, soulful playing based on the tune “The Brawby Boogie”.

The Brawby Boogie was written by Snake as a result of his appearances at The Shed© and the Pied Piper workshops in the days when the great Yorkshire Pudding Boat race were held there. It features in many of Snake’s workshops and it is as a result of the many requests for the tune to use as a practice piece that have led to the development of this package. It is a happy simple Latin-influenced piece which works well for most instruments and is a popular tune for:

B flat major concert (for flute, keys, guitar, etc)
C major for tenor sax, soprano sax, clarinet and trumpet
G major for alto sax and baritone sax
