Esteemed Singer, Songwriter and Producer Richard Marx Returns
to The Orleans Showroom, March 12-13
Multi-platinum album selling and award-winning singer, songwriter and producer Richard Marx returns to The Orleans Showroom for two nights, March 12 and 13, each evening at 8 p.m.
With more than 20 years in the music industry, Richard Marx has established himself as a hit-making singer/songwriter with career highlights that include selling more than 30 million albums and writing, as of 2009, 13 No. 1 songs.
Marx’s self-titled debut album and his first single in 1987 “Don’t Mean Nothing” was where it began for the performer as a solo artist. Combined with his follow up CD two years later Repeat Offender, Marx sold more than 10 million albums. From his debut through 1990, Marx became the first male solo artist to have his first seven singles reach the top five on the Billboard singles chart, including the well-known hits “Hold On to the Nights,” “Satisfied” and “Right Here Waiting.”
The hits kept coming in the early ‘90s as Marx released the double platinum selling CD Rush Street and 1994’s Paid Vacation, which included the worldwide hit, “Now and Forever.” The song spent 13 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard adult contemporary chart.
Marx and Vertical Horizon lead singer Matt Scannell partnered in 2008 as an acoustic duo and will soon release a CD of one of their recent live performances and plan to follow it up with an electric rock record. Marx also co-wrote a song for Ringo Starr’s recently released CD.
In late 2009, Marx released his latest solo CD, Emotional Remains, a modern rock record featuring collaborations with Matt Scannell, Jennifer Hanson and Kenny Loggins.
