Koz had the following to say, "I've been a huge fan of Larry's since my earliest days discovering music-this man has literally set musical history in motion several times in his illustrious career. We've been great friends for a long time, but to finally get to share the stage with him in this intimate way, is truly a dream come true. A perfect summer, if you ask me!"

Graham addedm "Dave Koz has the gift of being able to help people feel better with his music. I've seen it happen and have actually experienced it myself. His music makes you smile & lifts your spirit.

"Growing up, I started learning how to play various instruments including saxophone. I took lessons for a number of years in school. I have a special place in my heart for that instrument. With that being said, there's a huge appreciation in my heart for what Dave Koz does. I think this is a great combination for this summer's 'Side By Side' tour."
