About

I am a New England singer and multi-instrumentalist, playing saxophone, flute, clarinet, keyboards, and guitar. My Dad is an accomplished jazz drummer and was quite the influence on me when I was young. I also listen to and enjoy older and popular tunes. Being raised on such an incredible diversity of music, I am passionate about many different genres. I studied woodwinds with Peter Marino, Arthur Mirable, and attended Belisle Music School. I also teach woodwinds and repair band instruments.

Current projects are:

Brian Booth Live: Solo, duo, or trio acoustic performance. I play popular music from the 60's thru today.  See the promo vid and song list below.

Brian Booth Jazz Quartet:  I sing and play saxophone/flute.  Along with upright bassist Bruce Jarvis, guitarist Eric Bilodeau, and drummer Chuck Booth (My dad who is now 80) we play a variety of jazz standards and newer material. You never know what we will pull out of the hat!

Brian Booth presents, Rave On a tribute to Buddy Holly. You'll find me playing a Fender Stratocaster just like Buddy had! You'll see Bruce Jarvis and Chuck Booth again, along with Paul Cascio on lead guitar. I sing all of his timeless hits, and tell some interesting stories about his music, his short but influential life, and astounding career.

 

Tall Granite Big Band: I play the bari sax chair with this wonderful 18 piece swing band.
