Earlier this year, guitarist Cory Wong set out on his pursuit of 'The Koz Nod,' what he described in his July Social Experiment video as, 'when Dave Koz gives you the nod.' Since Wong's proclamation of this new goal and his unwavering desire to be the 'millennial ambassador of smooth jazz,' he's been very vocal about his latest endeavor. 'During every show I've done this past year, I've talked about how crazy it is that a guy has his own cruise that goes in different parts of the world every year, and it sells out before he even announces who is going to be playing on it,' shares Wong. 'He didn't know when he was practicing his pentatonic scales in 6th grade that he'd be where he is today...or did he?! I've been trying to connect with Dave Koz to play on his cruise and get out of Minnesota this winter.'
