We have a confession to make. Both iHeart and this commercial you're listening to right now would probably sound a heck of a lot better on the new Roku Pro Series TV. It's got side firing speakers that fill your room with sound. Dolby Atmos audio that puts you right in the middle of the entertainment. And the ability to pair seamlessly with your home theater sound systems that already have surround sound and booming bass. If all that sounds too good to be true, it'll sound even better on the new Roku Pro Series. Your hearing isn't better.

And my goodness this is one heck of a music story and about reimagining your own persona. And the music business is notorious for this. We have Bono that's not his real name.
We have Sting not his real name and Prince was not his real name. Up next you're going to hear a story about Sasquatch. You can go anywhere on the internet or YouTube or TikTok and see videos of a saxophone playing Sasquatch. Here is the story behind the story of the man and the legend, Saxquatch. I'm the artist Saxquatch and I was given that name pretty early on when I fell in love with the saxophone and I was just completely obsessed with it.
People called me Saxquatch and it's definitely stuck. I do come from a musical family. My grandfather was a musician.
His name was Gigfoot with a G and my sister was Big Flute. And so I always was tinkering on the instruments. Always loved music because it just made life more tolerable for me. And for a long time I was kind of an artist's artist.
So I would kind of play things that other musicians would like. And then as I've kind of evolved to wanting to connect with people more, I've kind of brought in my music to other things. I have to say most of my family has believed in me from the beginning, even though they were originally a little bit cautious about me sort of coming out of the woods.
I eventually convinced them that it's something that I really wanted to do and they were like, all right, let's do it. And it's been an incredible journey. You know, it really feels good to be believed in. You know, and so part of my message is just trying to connect with people and spread that belief back.
Let people know that they're not alone. So I'm kind of perpetuating that into the future and trying to spread the love. So I was playing in an internationally recognized band for a while, and I also was just starting to figure out the Saxquatch persona. And, you know, I never really intended on it being kind of my full-time job, if you will. And so one day I was just thinking, you know, all of this traveling that I was doing, I wasn't exactly getting what I needed, which was to be able to write my own music and produce my own music. And I thought, you know what? I just kind of connected the dots one night. It was late on my couch. I think my power was out.
I had some lit candles and it was two in the morning. And I thought to myself, I can just do Saxquatch and write my own music. So I did. I ran it by my family and friends. They were like, hey, I don't think you should do this. You know, it's a pretty low chance that you're ever going to be on your own, doing well as a sax player.
Sax players don't exactly rise to fame in and of themselves anymore in this day and age. And I thought about it. I wrote a pros and cons list as I was suggested to do. And when I looked at the list, I was just like, I got to do it. I got to do it because the rewards were too good for me not to go after, you know. Creative freedom is one of those things that as an artist, I wouldn't be able to live without. If I were to go down the street and see someone even on the street making music, sounding beautiful, writing their own songs, it would just be like, it would kill me inside to know that that wasn't me, that I wasn't doing that. So believe it or not, when I started off, right when I started off, people kind of hated it. People kind of hated Saxquatch. You know, my close friends were like, hey, what are you doing? And when it started to gain some traction is when people were really like, oh yeah, I like this now, that was a little bit interesting to see.
People like what other people like, you know, it's kind of a phenomenon. Looking back, I'm really grateful that I took that extremely risky leap. Now I am doing tours of my own music, getting millions of views on TikTok.
I've had songs come out with John Oates from Holland Oates, with Billy Ray Cyrus. And I've done music for the game Rocket League and Fortnite. You know, when I first started, I had kind of two goals that I was like, I'm going to shoot for the moon. And that was to be on Jimmy Fallon and to play the Super Bowl. And I did go on the Jimmy Fallon show and it was amazing.
So next stop, I want to play the Super Bowl one day. And a great job on the production, editing, and storytelling by our own Monty Montgomery and Reagan Habib. And what a story just about living your own version of the American dream and wanting to be, my goodness, a sax player and making a living at it. And we're going to go out with some of the music from Saxquatch here on Our American Stories.
