Salisbury, MA [July 11, 2014]– In a recording career that spans almost three decades and 23 albums, Grammy Award-winning saxophonist, Kenny G will be bringing his soulful music to Salisbury, Massachusetts. With a short tour to take place during the month of August and a limited number of cities being visited, Blue Ocean Music Hall’s date on Wednesday, August 6 will be the only stop in the New England area.
Kenny G has won multiple Grammy’s and is known for being the best-selling instrumental artist in the modern era, selling over 75 million albums. The smooth jazz saxophonist broke through to success with his 1986 album, Duotones and has had the same success with following albums. Mixing elements of R&B, pop and Latin in with his jazz roots, Kenny has maintained his reputation as the premiere artist in contemporary jazz.
The “Forever in Love” artist not only continues to tour but also continues creating music, having just finished a new record. With each new recording, Kenny begins from a personal place—the sounds that move him. It brings him great joy to perform his material to a live audience again.
When pressed about his theory as to why he has been so successful, Kenny offers, “I think my music givespeople the opportunity to listen to their own thoughts. Tap into their imaginations. Create their own stories tosongs without the limitation of words… plus it’s a really beautiful instrument.”
For the past twenty five years the jazz artist has been a fixture in arenas and amphitheaters and has performed for millions of people all over the world. Kenny G’s appearance at Blue Ocean music Hall offers an intimate setting like never before for jazz aficionados to enjoy the artist’s award-winning music up close and personal at the Blue Ocean Music Hall.
