People have described me as very Eclectic. I am a trained classical and jazz saxophonist who grew up listening to and loving the Pop music of the 60's and70's.
I pull from all genres and find myself one day writing a "pop" tune with lyrics and the next day an instrumental with a jazz flavor.
I love to play the sax and I love to sing a great song with great lyrics from the heart.
It's ALL MUSIC and IT's ALL GOOD!!!

Alan Darcy started singing soon after his first breath.
He took up the saxophone and flute a little later and explosive music has been happening ever since. Inspired by many great jazz artists and pop singer/songwriters, his vision and passion for music is reflected in his eclectic and exciting performances, compositions, and recordings.
For more than a decade, Alan has performed in concert on television and radio.
He has also entertained as a solo artist as well as with his band, at hundreds of events around the country and at famous venues from Birdland in N.Y.C. to the historic Tampa Theatre
Now in demand more than ever, Alan has released his 3rd CD,
FEARLESS to rave reviews.
-"Alan Darcy seems to be everywhere these days...getting into the groove with his smooth Jazz/Pop sound. Adept on the saxophone and flute, Darcy also does mean vocal covers of such Jazz/Pop icons as Sting and Billy Joel ! "- The Gazette
"Alan Darcy is a formidable saxophonist not unlike pop-jazz stars David Sanborn and Eric Marienthal"-- Logan Neil, St. Petersburg Times
"Alan Darcy Rocks! No matter my mood, Alan's diverse music hits home. I love it and can't wait for his next album!"-Debbie Happy Cohen, author of "Reach Your Stars!"

Hi Alan!! I love your sound... great music!! What a coincidence that you're playing with the legendary Dave Rudolph too!! I would love to make some music with you guys in the near future. We'll be in touch!
Hey Alan, How was your holidays? Did I read right you are coming to NY in March? I am going to be there. Since my birthday is on the 16th maybe I'll get a group of us to come. I would love to have a drink with you. Keep in touch with me. Let's try to do this. Looking forward to it.
Hi Alan, I love the video and the Obama grafitti in the background-- beautiful! I'm looking forward to this weekend and making some great music! peace+love/anne
Hey there Alan. Hope you are well. We took Grandma out for her 80th bday on Sunday. Italian restaurant of course. You and your mom would have loved it! Wish you would have been here. Miss you!
I love your new video Alan! It's FUN! I can't wait to see you LIVE again, because you're even more fun in person, if that is possible :-) And I love the words. "The love that you give makes me a better man." Beautiful.
Hey Alan honey, I'd forgotten how great "Fearless" sounds-- what a pleasure it was recording it!
Sorry I missed talking to you at the gig last Friday at TBPAC-- I did hear part of a song as I hurried to try and find some vegetarian grub in 15 minutes... the percussionist sounded excellent, as did you, of course... hope all is well! namaste, anne
Hey Alan. It's good to be in touch with you again. Look out for us on Dec. 11. We are going to tried to be there. Then you can meet my husband Charlie. Looking forward to see you.
