🎷 Richard Elliott: Keeping It Funky & Smooth 🎷
On this episode of 91.5 Jazz & More, we sit down with legendary saxophonist Richard Elliott ahead of his highly anticipated performance at Santa Fe Station in the Chrome Theater on Saturday, February 22nd. Richard shares his excitement about returning to Las Vegas, reflects on his decades-long career, and talks about the magic behind his latest album, Straight Up Down.
We dive into his favorite tracks to perform, the inspiration behind his music, and even get a glimpse into his process for choosing cover songs (spoiler: his wife has the final say!). Plus, he gives us a behind-the-scenes look at his band—some of whom he’s been playing with for nearly 30 years—and how their chemistry brings his live shows to life.
Richard also discusses his love for Latin music, the evolution of contemporary instrumental music, and how smooth jazz radio creates a unique bond between artists, fans, and stations. And of course, he keeps it funky with talk of his EWI (Electronic Wind Instrument) and his thoughts on performing with younger musicians.
Tune in to hear more from this jazz icon and get ready for an unforgettable night at Chrome Theater inside Santa Fe Station! 🎶✨
