Contemporary jazz icons David Sanborn, Earl Klugh and the late Grover Washington Jr. constitute the inaugural class that will be inducted into the music hall during a ceremony held aboard The Smooth Jazz Cruise this October 18th.

This genre has been successful over many decades, long enough to establish a wonderful history and a clear past, present and future. Our goal is to make sure that the visionary artists who helped develop and further this music genre are honored and remembered. In so doing, it helps define our present and ensure the music's future."

Saxophonist Sanborn and guitarist Klugh will perform during the induction ceremony that will air on SiriusXM's Watercolors while Washington Jr.'s contributions will be recognized by an all-star salute featuring some of the artists aboard The Smooth Jazz Cruise, including fellow sax players Boney James, Richard Elliot, Candy Dulfer, Euge Groove and Jackiem Joyner.

We have been blessed to partner with Watercolors over the years and hosting their Jazz Hall of Fame induction ceremony is very special," said Michael Lazaroff, Executive Director of The Smooth Jazz Cruise.
