Each member of the Sideguys shares a direct connection to Sanborn’s band, creating a rare musical chemistry rooted in real experience. But they each boast illustrious careers in their own right:
Nicky Moroch collaborated with a diverse array of musicians, from David Bowie to Lady Gaga and Luther Vandross to Elton John and more. Drummer Sonny Emory, a former member of Earth, Wind & Fire, also performed with icons who include Bruce Hornsby, Steely Dan, Eric Clapton, Bette Midler, and Lee Ritenour. Mark Stephens, a sought-after session musician, has played alongside legends Larry Carlton, Josh Groban, George Duke, Boney James, Diana Ross and the renowned group Take 6. Bassist Andre Berry is known for his dynamic work in funk, jazz, and pop. He spent five years touring with David Sanborn and has also shared the stage with renowned artists including Candy Dulfer. Celebrated saxophonist, Alex Han has made memorable appearances alongside such notable artists as Herbie Hancock, Esperanza Spalding, Paquito D'Rivera, George Duke, Patrice Rushen, and Peter Erskine.
Together, the Sideguys deliver a powerful, cohesive performance that captures the essence of Sanborn’s music—blending jazz, R&B, and fusion with authenticity, groove, and spontaneity. The show features signature hits, fan favorites, and deeper cuts, all brought to life with the intensity and interaction that made Sanborn’s concerts legendary.To purhcase tickets for this event click here
