Dave Koz & Friends: Summer Horns 2025

Nine-time Grammy Award® nominee and popular saxophonist Dave Koz, along with several performing friends, will return to The Smith Center for a one-night-only “Summer Horns 2025: The Ultimate Summer Party.” Koz will play along with all your horn section favorites including Marcus Anderson (saxophone), Jeff Bradshaw (trombone), Leo P (baritone sax), Evan Taylor (trumpet) and Marcel Anderson (vocals).

Born and raised in the San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles, Koz initially saw the saxophone as a way to gain entry into his big brother’s band. What began as a ploy became a lifelong obsession. Nearly three decades later, Platinum-selling artist, Koz has racked up an astoundingly impressive array of honors and achievements: nine GRAMMY® nominations, 11 No. 1 albums on Billboard’s Current Contemporary Jazz Albums chart, numerous world tours, 13 sold-out Dave Koz & Friends At Sea cruises, performances for multiple U.S. presidents, a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and appearances on a multitude of television shows, including “Good Morning America,” “The View,” “The Tonight Show,” “Entertainment Tonight” and more. Along the way, his numerous television appearances led to stints as band member on “The Arsenio Hall Show,” as band leader on “Emeril Live” and as host of PBS’s “Frequency.”
