Just Koz Ent.
Oct. 29, 2021
In a recording career that spans nearly three decades, saxophonist Dave 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. A Platinum-selling artist, Koz is also known as a humanitarian, entrepreneur, radio host and instrumental music advocate.
A New Day is his 20th album as an artist and first collection of original material in 10 years. Conceived and recorded completely under the umbrella of Covid, this album’s purpose is to give the listener a ‘musical hug’, hopefully providing a sense of comfort and good feeling amidst the intense backdrop of the pandemic we are all experiencing globally. With a roster of very special guests, all of whom recorded their parts virtually, this album's release date was October 9, 2020… 30 years and one day after the release of Dave’s debut album.
The new single "The Closer We Get" is co-written by Darren Rahn and Dave Koz. It's the follow-up to #1 Billboard hits "Side By Side" and "Dr. Norm".
“Always front and center is the music. It's humbling, this many years in such a fickle business, to still have a career, still be able to go out and tour and make records. Music has been such a blessing to me, and we need it more than ever today." - Dave Koz
