About:

Vibraphonist/composer Stefon Harris and his band Blackout return to our stage for four nights of great music. When three-time Grammy Award nominee Harris introduced this band on his 2004 Blue Note CD Evolution, the Washington Post hailed their success in “pursuing contemporary jazz on its own terms” and Jazz Times ranked the album among its Top 50 CDs of the year. Stefon Harris & Blackout have performed at the North Sea Jazz Festival, The Kennedy Center, Jazz At Lincoln Center, and San Francisco’s Herbst Theater, among other leading venues. “Unquestionably one of the most exciting and imaginative jazz artists around!” (Calvin Wilson, St. Louis Post-Dispatch)
