Grammy award–winning recording artist and songwriter Richard Marx has joined the One805Live! fall concert line-up, a benefit concert put on by One805, a nonprofit organization aimed towards supporting fire, police, and sheriff first responders in Santa Barbara County.
Marx is best known for co-writing Luther Vandross’ "Dance with My Father," which went on to win the Song of the Year Grammy in 2004. He has sold over 30 million albums worldwide, and is the only male artist in history whose first seven singles reached the Top 5 on the Billboard charts . Marx’s solo discography includes hits like "Now and Forever," "Hold on to the Nights," and "Right Here Waiting."
His extensive and diverse songwriting career has led him to work on songs for a wide range of artists, such as "This I Promise You" by NSYNC, "Crazy" by Kenny Rogers, "Long Hot Summer" by Keith Urban, and "To Where You Are" by Josh Groban.
