Brian "The Saxman" Omundsen is a self-taught vocalist / saxophonist hailing originally from Wanganui, New Zealand. For 25 years, he has travelled extensively - performing at concerts, festivals, bars, on South Pacific cruise ships, and at functions too numerous to mention.

Reachout was recorded in Creatavision Studios in 2006. It is a completely originals album written, performed, recorded, mixed and produced by Brian. Covering a mixture of styles, it is a pleasant easy listening album full of rich soundscapes, soaring sax lines, soulful vocals and inspired lyrics.

Artist Clinton Herdman worked alongside and created 10 large and stunning originals linked to each of the songs. This album inspired the duo to embartk on a national tour called Musart.

All The Night's Magicwas recorded in Creatavision Studios in 1997. Brian's vocals and saxophone feature on the album. It is a collection of Swing/Jazz-blues songs that have been selected to give respect to a genre he handles with competence and originality.

The material has been well chosen to seamlessly bridge the 1930's/40's with the 1970'/80's. The musicianship of both Brian and Doug Wright, (a well known Dunedin keyboardist, and the other artist on the album) shines through every song.

Brian has two other albums available on CD:
"Yours Sincerely" by Gatz'n'Sax (with Darren Peihopa), and "In a Bar Somewhere" by The Saxman.

Both are available from the contact addresses below.
