Saturday Night with Marcus Miller & Friends was The Smooth Jazz Cruises’ wildly popular streaming series that was produced in Fall 2020 to provide our loyal fans with some great music amidst the throes of the pandemic. This special episode, hosted by Marcus Miller and Alonzo Bodden, featured some of our favorite cruise headliners — Jonathan Butler, Keiko Matsui, Kirk Whalum and Peter White — together with the Saturday Night Band of Patrice Rushen, Eric Marienthal, Paul Jackson, Jr., Nate Phillips, Mike Rocha, Alex Bailey and Munyungo Jackson.
You can sail with these stars in 2022. Check out the all-star lineups on all 3 sailings of The Smooth Jazz Cruise here:

Have you heard that Beethoven Cover? Incredible 20:10
Keiko Matsui is still sweet. I remember when she was in Chicago with Peter White and my first time hearing her I yelled out You Go Girl and she smiled. Kirk we go back to Cody's in Houston. Peter was my smooth jazz guy. He performed one Easter and I sent him a lil duck that quacked, he brought it on stage! So funny. Jonathan B. live at the Metropol in Chicago! And then of course there's Marcus Marcus Marcus! Patrice still giving up those forget-me-nots! Love You Guys from Savoya in Chi!
