About this concert
Born 1976 in Houston, Texas, multiple GRAMMY Award nominee Eric Harland may be the most indemand drummer of his jazz generation (as well as an ordained minister, having studied theology at Houston Baptist University). Hes appeared on some 200 recordings and has worked on stage and in session with masters such as Betty Carter, Joe Henderson, McCoy Tyner, and Wayne Shorter as well as upandcoming artists like Esperanza Spalding, Jane Monheit, and Julian Lage. During the past two years, Eric has performed with groups led by pianist Joey Alexander, bassist Dave Holland, and saxophonist Charles Lloyd. This week, Eric Harland arrives on our stage at the helm of perhaps his most daringly adventurous unit, the Electric Quartet dont miss it! The deepest secret is that life is not a process of discovery, but a process of creation. (EH)Eric Harland drumsAaron Parks keyboards, pianoJoshua Giunta electronicsKeita Ogawa percussion
