About

DAVE KOZ IN CONCERT:

When Dave Koz takes the stage, all is quiet as the audience intently listens to every pure note from the seasoned saxophonist. Playing both tenor and alto sax, his fingers glide across the instrument with an ease that can't be matched. Whether he's performing chart-topping hits like "Life In the Fast Lane" and "Put the Top Down" or launching into an epic solo, Koz's grace on the woodwind instrument is exceptional, full of trills, thrills, and spontaneity during his hit-filled set lists. Dave Koz returns to the stage in 2014 for his upcoming Summer Horns tour as well as a string of highly anticipated shows with Barry Manilow.

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

Starting out in his high school's jazz band, Dave Koz fell in love with the saxophone early on, deciding to pursue music full time after graduating from college. He landed on tour with Bobby Caldwell not long after and served as a studio musician in the '80s before launching his breakout solo career. Since then, Koz has released 15 studio albums — eight of which have reached the Top 10 of the Billboard Jazz chart — and four No. 1 jazz singles. Not only is the nine-time Grammy nominee a sensational saxophonist, but he's also a radio personality, television host, and philanthropist, serving as a Global Ambassador for the Starlight Children's Foundation. Koz will delight fans with his smooth jazz sounds on his upcoming tour dates.

    Magnificent Set

    by Mick W on 12/9/21Sound Board at MotorCity Casino Hotel - Detroit

    The Dave Koz & Friends concert was an exceptional experience. The combination of horns, rhythm section and vocals were really. I loved the way they covered all of the Christmas Classics and finished with popular cuts from each artist. Dave Koz, Jonathan Butler, Richard Elliot and Rick Braun. Killer lineup!!! Can't wait til next year.

    Put me in the holiday spirit

    by Pugmamma on 12/9/21Sound Board at MotorCity Casino Hotel - Detroit

    My daughter and I ate at the Assembly Line Buffet before the Dave Koz Christmas Show. The food and service was awesome. It was a little odd having to cash in my "phone" tickets at the Box Office just to eat, and I'm not sure why that was necessary (?). However, there was no issue with using my phone to pull up the tickets at the concert entrance which was scanned by the staff. I was pleasantly surprised that folks were searched for metallic objects and even "wanded" if necessary for security purposes. The seating was very good with excellent view of the stage. Big screen TVs were within view. Everything about Dave's show was top notch! The performance was high energy with a wide variety of songs to get one in the spirit of Christmas. I would go again in a "heartbeat." I appreciate the fact that the Motor City Casino has a dress code for no "see through" or revealing garments. And face masks were required which seems reasonable in light of COVID. Parking was easy in the garage which was well lit. I felt safe there.

    What a great magical night

    by Wonder Woman on 12/9/21Sound Board at MotorCity Casino Hotel - Detroit

    I loved everything about Dave Koz and Friends Holiday tour. They were all so talented and entertaining. I am 44 years old and I grew up listening to Dave Koz and love his song you make me smile. When I saw that he was coming for Christmas to Sound board I had to get tickets to see him. I was impressed by all the talent he had with him and how funny he was. They were all so phenomenal and I will go see them all again. What a great night of music, talent and fun! I even got to hear my favorite song by Dave Koz and they were amazing! Thank you for everything that Sound Board did for this event to take place and to make the whole evening perfect. Sound board did a great job and the staff at Sound Board is amazing, friendly and helped me get to my seat and knew everything about what was going on, very well organized and put on. Great night!! Thank you so much!!!
