Marcus Miller To Tour With George Duke and David Sanborn

Marcus Miller, George Duke and David Sanborn - DMSMarcus Miller will be joining keyboardist George Duke and saxophonist David Sanborn for an extensive U.S. tour starting in Orlando, Florida and winding through the country to end in Hollywood, California.

The trio, who will be performing as DMS, promise to bring a mix of funk, jazz and blues to the masses.

Each member had crossed paths with each other, but this is the first time they will be performing as a unified group.

“Dave and I already had plans to reunite after being away from each other for a while,” Miller said. “When we were thinking of adding a third person and our booking agent suggested George Duke, Dave and I looked at each other, like, ‘Is that possible? Is he available? Let’s do it!’ The three of us had the chance to play together in January on the Smooth Jazz Cruise and the vibe was great. Now we’re looking forward to seeing where else we can take the music.”
