Get Ready to “Celebrate” — Skip Martin at CSN

Big news for our music community. On Tuesday, January 27, we’re welcoming Skip Martin to campus,  the powerhouse vocalist you’ve heard with Kool & the Gang and The Dazz Band, and a Grammy and Emmy winner who’s lived a wild amount of music life.

Skip has done it all. Hit records. Sold-out tours. Music in movies like “Pitch Perfect” and “Pulp Fiction.” Even work sampled by Justin Timberlake.

He’s coming to hang out with you, to talk music, answer real questions about the industry, and share what he’s learned along the way. No boring lecture. Just a chance to hear from someone who’s actually made it.

Master Class with Skip Martin
2 to 3 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 27, 2026
Charleston Campus | Room D101

This is designed for music program students, but if you love music or want a peek at what a pro career looks like, come on in. Pull up a chair. Soak it in.

Skip’s the kind of artist who makes you want to chase the thing you’re good at. We could all use a little of that.
