“The multi-Grammy winner returns with new music in tow.”
Gary Clark Jr., a four-time Grammy winner, has made himself a modern-day icon by seamlessly blending blues, rock, and R&B, and his new album, JPEG RAW, widens the scope even further.
Drawing inspiration from blues singer Sonny Boy Williamson and jazz pianist Thelonious Monk, he brings together flourishes from African music, jazz, and other sounds from around the world, delivering his socially conscious and deeply personal lyrics through singing, rapping, and spoken word, all atop groove-oriented psychedelia with hip-hop beats, anthemic choruses, and fuzz guitar.
Trailblazing husband-and-wife duo Michael Trotter Jr. and Tanya Trotter open the night, expanding their borders with intimate songwriting that combines blues, soul, R&B, gospel, country, and more, digging into the lessons their love has taught them with a revival-like intensity that has made their live shows can’t-miss events around the world.
