Evening
Concert - Kennedy Outdoor Theater
Not
just another funk/world/rock/jazz/classical
ensemble, Eclectica is a virtuoso groove event. This genre-defying band
features the 5 time Grammy Award–winning drumming
of
ROY
"FUTUREMAN"
WOOTEN, of Bela Fleck and the Flecktones and
electric violin virtuoso TRACY SILVERMAN, heralded by the BBC as “the greatest living
exponent of the electric violin.” Bass legend STEVE FORREST completes the ensemble. PHIL LASSITER joins the band on Keys and trumpet.
ECLECTICA
weaves sound-pieces together with a groove that is
alive from the first note to the last encore, with
sing-along choruses and creative jams that can lead
in any direction. With 3-part vocals and inspired
synchronicity, ECLECTICA is a celebration and a
concert on the same stage
"It's
a remarkable blend of potent jamming, catchy
songwriting, and an unexpectedly light vibe that
makes Eclectica not just one of the year's most
pleasant surprises, but one of the best side
projects to ever come out of a Flecktone,"
