Now celebrating a quarter century of urban-tinged Smooth Jazz merrymaking, veteran saxophonist Jarez has enjoyed several identities reflective of his commitment to romance and grooving hard - "Mr. Sexy Saxy" and "Mayor of J Funk City." His eclectic resume also includes tours with Coolio and appearances on the late rapper's popular web series "Cookin' With Coolio." Now making his mark as the Smooth Jazz holiday anthem cat, Jarez follows his haunting Halloween-themed "Trapped in the Groove" with the cleverly titled "The Groove That Saved Christmas," a swaying and danceable instrumental and vocal jam fusing colorful cinematic holiday storytelling with jingle-jazzy vibes, pumping grooves and a boisterous lead horn melody backed by sassy brass and sleigh bells. If you're in the doldrums this December, let Jarez save you with groove!
