View Adrian Crutchfield's EPKGreeting
Adrian Crutchfield is known mostly for his neo-soul sound. His silky smooth tambre creates beautiful music in a variety of genres including jazz, funk, latin and rock.
Adrian's star began shining at the tender age of four when he received his first saxophone from acclaimed jazz artist Kenny G during a concert in Roanoke, VA. Kenny G noticed Adrian was engrossed with his performance and briefly stopped the concert to bring Adrian to the side of the stage. After blowing a few notes, he gave Adrian his first saxophone.
Twenty years later, in 2009, the charismatic and passionate Crutchfield released his debut compact disc entitled, "Private Party". Mr. Crutchfield’s initial project highlights his diverse musical interests and talents by featuring his sophisticated sax on jazz, neo soul, and hip hop tracks.
A 2008 graduate of Florida State University (B.A. in Music with a concentration in jazz, contemporary media and commercial music); Adrian has had the privilege of performing with some of today's brightest stars. While attending college (April 2006), Adrian became the sax man for national rhythm and blues recording artist Anthony Hamilton during the “Change Your World Tour” which featured other popular R & B artists such as Heather Headley, Van Hunt, and Vivian Green. Adrian also has played behind American Idol winner Fantasia Barrino, and for internationally known rap star Young Jeezy. Most recently, Mr. Crutchfield played along side smooth jazz icon Kim Waters.
Adrian began his professional music career at the age of 14 by appearing in shows and clubs in Charlotte, N.C. During this period, he also had a part as a swing dancer in the made-for-television movie Shake, Rattle and Roll! and performed with The Gap Band and Fourplay. At the age of 16, Adrian opened a concert for veteran recording artist Regina Belle and a year later was offered a permanent position in the band of neo soul diva Angie Stone after performing for the artist on her birthday.
Adrian Crutchfield is an emerging star. As a 24 year old saxophone aficionado, he is poised and ready to become one of his generation’s most prolific and successful professional musicians.
