The music of Dorian Gray - - a combination of smooth jazz melodies accompanied by funky dance grooves topped with solos that contain their own mixture of gospel, funk, blues, swing, and anything else that can be interpreted musically. It is designed to entertain and satisfy the average smooth jazz listener while giving the groove conscience listeners something they can shake it off to!
Whether it's smooth jazz to taper off the day or funky grooves to shake it off to, this HOT young saxophonist delivers like no other!
Versatile music maker Dorian Gray has shared the stage with the likes of Billy Cobham, Marvin Stamm, Kirk Whalum, Bobby Warren, Brenton Wood, the late Johnny Clyde Copeland, and Lou Marini of The Blues Brothers.
With appearances in the Nice, France Jazz Festival, London England, Aberdeen Scotland, Tokyo Japan, the Boston Garden, the Greek Theatre, and various clubs and restaurants from New York to Los Angeles, Dorian Gray's "SoulSax" has inspired many.
Presently, you can catch 'Dorian Gray Live' performing with Collective Hallucination - "The World's Best Original Band" - - Take care and God bless.
Greetings from Hawaii! I'm here soaking up the culture and beauty and wanted to send some Hawaiian sunshine your way! I hope you had a glorious weekend and that you had the opportunity to get out and feel the sun on your face!
Thirty-seven years ago today, on April 20th 1972, the Apollo 16 landed on the moon.
Wherever you are today, and whatever you're doing, I wish you a happy and safe landing!
Every time that we listen or write music... play an instrument... dance... act in a play... or work in some audio/image/video engineering process... Something is healing inside...
When we share it with friends... Something is healing all over...
