Dave Koz, for years, has been one of my very favorite sax players. His smooth effortless delivery has been in my collection for decades. In addition, his live show and his radio show “Dave Koz Radio Show” are musts for his fans and smooth jazz aficionados alike.

In the 25 years since the release of his self-titled solo debut album, Dave Koz has received nine GRAMMY® nominations, had nine No. 1 albums on Billboard’s Current Contemporary Jazz Albums chart, toured the world and been honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. In the course of his career, Koz has also played with such artists as Burt Bacharach, Ray Charles, Natalie Cole, Celine Dion, Shelby Lynne, Kenny Loggins, U2 and Michael McDonald. A platinum-selling artist, he is also known as a humanitarian, entrepreneur, radio host and instrumental music advocate.

Dave initially just saw the saxophone as a way to help him gain entry into his big brother’s band. What began as a ploy became a lifelong obsession of Dave’s. After graduating from UCLA, Koz decided to become a professional musician. Within weeks of that decision, he was recruited as a touring member of Bobby Caldwell’s band. It was during this time that Koz befriended keyboardist Jeff Lorber, who invited Koz to come play on one of his tours. That stint was followed by a fourteen-month tour with pop singer Richard Marx.

Dave is constantly touring, with annual summer and holiday tours, and the highly successful Dave Koz & Friends At Sea. His next two voyages are sold out, bringing his tally of sold out cruises to seven. In 2017, he’ll host two back-to-back voyages to “Venice and Beyond.” Dave also continues to flex his mass-communications muscles as a radio personality. As host of his syndicated “Dave Koz Radio Show,” he has been broadcasting coast-to-coast for more than 21 years.

So today, my ear candy “Expressing my Sax-u-ality” experience is dedicated to the artistry of the great Dave Koz…KOZ IT’S JUST SOOOOOOO SMOOOOOOTH. DAVE!!!…COME ON IN AND BLOW KOZ STYLE! NJOY.
