Richard Marx, a man nominated for 3 Grammy awards and 1 American Music Award finds no more satisfying reward in life than headlining Sunday’s Celebrity Concert for Charity.
Marx debuted over 20 years ago with his hit single “Don’t Mean Nothing” from his self-titled album and has since gone on to sell over 30 million albums and write thirteen #1 songs. Marx continues to remain a respected pop and adult contemporary artist in the music industry.
On Sunday, August 15th at 6:30PM, Marx will be appearing at the Fraze Pavilion in Kettering on behalf of the 13th Annual Celebrity Concert for Charity. The charity benefits the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation as well as the Children’s Medical Center. Marx is no ‘first-timer’ to donating his time or talents to charity. Back in 1987 he donated the royalties of his 1987 hit single “Should’ve Known Better” to build a room at the NYU Medical Center where pediatric cancer patients can play while at the hospital. Marx first aligned himself with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation back in 2000 and has raised more than $3 million for the Foundation.
Don’t miss your chance to see Marx at this year’s Celebrity Concert for Charity at The Fraze Pavilion on Sunday, August 15th at 6:30 p.m. Tickets are on sale now.

Vernon Hills received a surprise Friday night when a Grammy Award-winning singer made a last-minute decision to visit and entertain with some pals at the village’s annual festival.
North Shore resident Richard Marx joined headliner Vertical Horizon on the main stage at Vernon Hills Summer Celebration. Marx was not on the official Summer Celebration entertainment schedule.
Vernon Hills Village Manager Mike Allison said word about Marx’s intention to jump on the Summer Celebration stage for a few songs came late Friday afternoon from event organizers.
He said Marx knows Vertical Horizon members.
“He’s just playing with some friends,” Allison said.
At least 4,000 patrons were expected at Friday night’s Vernon Hills Summer Celebration at Century Park, just north of Route 60 and Lakeview Parkway.
Marx snagged a Grammy in 2004 for the song “Dance with My Father,” which he cowrote with Luther Vandross. He’s best known for “Endless Summer Nights,” “Right Here Waiting” and “Now and Forever.”
Summer Celebration’s featured act today will be The Smithereens at 9 p.m. The event’s finale will be from 1 to 9 p.m. Sunday.
