Joe Rozum to play at the Smothers Theatre, Pepperdine University in Malibu
May 23, 2007 by Tumbling Marbles
Los Angeles: Southern California-based pianist, composer and songwriter Joe Rozum returns to the Smothers Theatre at Pepperdine University for a headlining 8pm concert on Saturday, May 19. Set on Pepperdine’s stunning ocean-view campus on PCH in Malibu, the elegant 450- seat theatre is the perfect venue for Rozum to celebrate the release of this new CD Along The Coast, which will be available for sale at the event.
Known for his seamless fusion of smooth jazz and pop – with inflections of “cool blues & classical” — Joe’s artistry shines on the new album, his third. The disc features fifteen original compositions, all of which will have their major stage debut at Smothers on the 19th. Destined to be a favorite on smooth jazz FM dial destination 94.7 FM “The Wave,” Along The Coast’s highlights include five solo piano tracks, among them Joe’s personal favorites “Footprints On My Heart,” “She’s As Pretty As A Picture” and “The Miracle.” The title track is a bluesy instrumental featuring the full band, and “Dinner By Candlelight” is an enticing R&B stand-out.
