Some choose to carry on that timelessness by creating their own music or covering their own renditions of classics. That is the situation that longtime jazz musicians, the R.J. Marx Quartet found themselves in.These four are professional musicians currently based in Seaside, Oregon. Each member has years of unique experience and a longtime passion for music.Marx studied jazz at Berklee College of Music and later on took inspiration from artists such as Wayne Shorter and John Coltrane.Robinson has more movie experience, having played for Disney soundtracks in the past and is credited in hit movies such as “La La Land” and “Whiplash.”Hill is a homegrown Oregonian, attending Portland State University and pursuing her career in jazz by playing the keyboard for luxury cruise ships and clubs.Morrow spent his college years at OSU. During that time, he started playing the drums in a local band, which opened doors for him to play for multiple Pacific Northwest bands.According to Marx, this will be the band’s first performance on TV and they are all looking forward to the opportunity.“We’ll be ready to take on Corvallis. We’ll be ready to rock the town!” Marx said.To tune in to the R.J. Marx Quartet’s Locals Live performance on Oct. 23, visit KBVR-TV on YouTube and for more information, visit https://kbvrtv.orangemedianetwork.com/. </div></body>
