Marcus Anderson & Adam Hawley Live in New Brunswick – Jazz Remix Series

On December 12, 2025, the jazz capital of New Jersey turns up the heat when saxophone sensation Marcus Anderson joins forces with six-string virtuoso Adam Hawley at the Jazz Remix Series in New Brunswick. This marquee double-bill unites two of contemporary jazz’s most electrifying performers for a groove-packed evening that fuses funk, soul, and classic bebop into one seamless soundscape.

Marcus Anderson—the powerhouse alto and soprano saxophonist best known for touring with Prince’s New Power Generation—brings sky-high energy, razor-sharp improvisation, and a catalog of Billboard-topping hits including “Venus” and “Conditioned.” Expect dazzling solos, soulful vocals, and his signature choreographed stage presence that turns every show into a celebration.

Guitarist Adam Hawley follows with his award-winning blend of smooth jazz and R&B. The Los Angeles native has scored five #1 radio singles, most recently “Can You Feel It” and “Joy Ride,” earning him the 2021 Smooth Jazz Artist of the Year award. Hawley’s melodic six-string stories and funky rhythms create the perfect counterbalance to Anderson’s horn-fired fireworks.

Held in the acoustically perfect, intimate venue at the New Brunswick Performing Arts Center, this affordably priced stop on the Jazz Remix Series guarantees every seat feels front-row. Surround yourself with fellow aficionados, sip craft cocktails from the lobby bar, and witness world-class musicianship as Anderson and Hawley trade licks, share the stage, and premiere brand-new collaborations written just for this tour.

Whether you’re a lifelong jazz lover or new to the genre, the night promises a playlist of chart-toppers, holiday surprises, and spontaneous jams you won’t hear anywhere else. Secure your tickets early—this one-night summit between two modern jazz giants is destined to sell out fast.
