A wildly talented saxophonist with an outrageous sense of style both musically and otherwise, Mindi Abair honed her craft in a conservatory setting, enrolling at Berklee College of Music. After graduating in 1991, she began her professional career, which soon found her playing with high-profile artists like Bobby Lyle, Rick Braun and John Tesh. In 1999, her fame was boosted when she was hired to play with boy band sensation The Backstreet Boys. Sought after no doubt for both her talent and bewitchingly youthful stage presence, Abair has collaborated with Aerosmith, Mandy Moore and Dave Koz.
