Esperanza Spalding

Bassist, vocalist, and composer Esperanza Spalding has quickly emerged as one of the brightest lights in the musical world. With a unique and style-spanning presence, deeply rooted in jazz yet destined to make her mark far beyond, Spalding became the first jazz musician to receive the Grammy Award for Best New Artist in 2011. Now, she unveils the brilliant compositions of her new release, Radio Music Society, into a dynamic “big band” format with her world class 12-piece band.
