Fresh off the sold-out Dave Koz and Friends at Sea Mediterranean cruise and a show at London's Cadogan Hall, eight-time GRAMMY nominee Dave Koz is now back in the States, where he's sitting in with the band on "The Arsenio Hall Show" tonight, October 15 and getting ready for the holidays. Dave always celebrates in a big way, entertaining thousands of his closest friends in a jaunt that takes him from coast to coast.
Now celebrating its 16th anniversary, this year's Dave Koz and Friends Christmas Tour will feature renowned singer Oleta Adams, who first came to prominence when Tears for Fears asked her to appear on their The Seeds of Love album and who has released eight acclaimed CDs of her own, crossing effortlessly between R&B, jazz, popular and gospel music, Jonathan Butler, who was the first black artist played on white stations in his native South Africa and has since earned accolades in the R&B, contemporary jazz and gospel fields, and Japanese born pianist/composer/producer Keiko Matsui, who has shared the stage with everyone from Stevie Wonder to MiLes Davis. The run will kick off on the day after Thanksgiving (November 29) at Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall in Sarasota, FL. Year after year, fans return for an uplifting, high-energy show that offers fresh, unexpected takes on seasonal favorites and hits from each of the artist's careers.Videos
