ROBERT GLASPER is the leader of a new sonic paradigm with a career that bridges musical and artistic genres. His work and accolades bridge all aspects of the music business, from live touring to film scoring, composing and producing. The ongoing Black Radio series has since become Glasper’s calling card, upholding a place at the heart of a trailblazing community: from long-time sonic brothers Mos Def and Bilal, to legends including Ledisi, Lupe Fiasco, Jill Scott, and Erykah Badu. Glasper is an artist at the heart of a moment - and a movement - to champion Black music, Black people, and the possibility of a better future.
Acclaimed GRAMMY-winning multi-instrumentalist, singer, and songwriter MESHELL NDEGEOCELLO makes her Blue Note Records debut with The Omnichord Real Book, a visionary, expansive, and deeply jazzinfluenced album that marks the start of a new chapter in her trailblazing career. Meshell first appeared on a Blue Note record a decade ago with her stunning feature on “The Consequences of Jealousy” from Robert Glasper’s GRAMMY-winning 2012 album Black Radio.
Robert Glasper and Meshell Ndegeocello will perform as part of WasFest, a brand-new three-day music festival with an all-star lineup hosted by the Boch Center and The Folk Americana Roots Hall of Fame. WasFest is a celebration of collaboration and creativity where artists perform unique sets that often feature the album of another musician.
