"I have been using Rico "orange box" reeds for close to a decade now. I need reeds that have immediate response and can play right out of the box. I don't want to always have to search for a "good" reed and I never have to do that with these reeds! I need to be able to project and have edge to my sound, and these reeds always provide me with that."

Grammy Award-winning baritone saxophonist Lauren Sevian is one of the most in demand musicians on the scene today. Ms. Sevian came to NYC in 1997 to attend the Manhattan School of Music and soon thereafter began touring with groups such as Diva and the Artie Shaw Orchestra. She can be seen performing as a bandleader around the NYC area with her quartet the LSQ.

Her sophomore album "Bliss" was released in the spring of 2018 on Posi-Tone Records and features all stars of the jazz scene.
