‘I love it! Natural and synthetic fibres woven together. For me it’s a great feel, great sound and great when I’m doubling’

Millicent Stephenson, our Fiberreed Endorser, is an accomplished and acclaimed multi-award winning saxophonist.

Millicent songs have been featured on BBC Radio, International, Community and local radio stations.  Millicent’s recent Single ‘Take me To The King’, is an uplifting up-tempo instrumental reggae version of the chart topping Gospel and Contemporary Christian song originally performed by Tamela Mann and written by Kirk Franklin. This track is on rotation on KickFM Radio an international syndicated Radio station with 6 million listeners.

In response to ‘Where can I find you?’ from her fans, Millicent created her yearly Show ‘Not Just Jazz’ which, in 2019, is in its fifth year, to showcase her original material and favourite iconic covers of Jazz, Gospel, Blues, Reggae, Soul and Pop.

Millicent supports female musicians and singers through her networking event called ‘Cafemnee’.  This caught the eye of BBC1 Songs of Praise and was featured in their programme in March 2017.

Millicent currently serves as a member of the Midlands Regional Committee of the Musicians Union and also the Equalities Sub-Committee assisting in the decision making of policies and standards for musicians within the UK.
