TICKETS + INFORMATION

The Artist Formerly Known As Christian Scott has moved so far beyond his former stance as a jazz fushioneer to an in-depth tracing of his New Orleans roots back to West Africa that he doesn’t even play the trumpet on his new album, but rather sings and plays a pan-West African string instrument of his own devising. And boy is this music good.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  Now that Tuscan charmer I Sodi has moved into a bigger new location, think it’ll be easier to get into? Me neither.
