Key Leaves won "Best In Show" NAMM Show 2019 for the Key Leaves saxophone key props that cure sticky G#, Eb and C# saxophone pads!

“This is a pure thrill!” exclaimed saxophone player and Key Leaves Founder, Rulon Brown. “There’s no higher honor than to be recommended from over 7,000 brands and tens of thousands of products!”

We are deeply honored to win the most prestigious award available to band and orchestra accessory makers. This was an inspiring way to end our first year in business and first time at The NAMM Show.
