Jazz and pop favorites are on the playlist

July 11, 2011 (SALISBURY, NC) – The Marc Hoffman Trio, led by composer/recording artist Marc Hoffman, will perform for the Krazy Night Out family festival in downtown Salisbury this Friday, July 15, from 6:00-9:00 p.m.

With Terry Peoples on bass and Rick Murray on drums, the trio will serve up many songs from Hoffman’s all-original jazz CD, Curioso, as well as other jazz and pop favorites.

Curioso features several tracks inspired by other jazz musician’s works. “Hefti” channels the light, lyrical work of Hoffman’s former composition professor, the late Neal Hefti. “Pontified” is Hoffman’s take on the late ‘70s music of Jean-Luc Ponty. “Introspective” is reminiscent of David Benoit’s smooth jazz. And Vince Guaraldi’s influence is apparent on the title tune, “Curioso.”

Virillion Music released the CD in 2010. Tracks can be heard on Marc Hoffman’s website, www.marchoffman.com, and at CDBaby, Amazon, and iTunes.

Marc will perform on July 30th at The Blue Vine in downtown Salisbury.

Krazy Night Out is a free family event featuring music, food, free trolley rides, the Ghost Walk and other entertainment, as well as late-night shopping throughout downtown Salisbury. Fun for kids includes inflatables, face painting, and more.

Downtown Salisbury, Inc., sponsors Friday Night Out events each month from April through October. “Many thanks to Betz McKeown and Downtown Salisbury for having us back this year,” Hoffman said.
