JOHN SCOFIELD
RETURN OF THE ÜBERJAM PROJECT
ONE SET WITHOUT INTERMISSION
John Scofield, Avi Bortnick gitaar, Andy Hess bas, Louis Cato drums
John Scofield is, and has been for years, one of the top three jazz guitarists, alongside Pat Metheny en Bill Frisell. His Überjam Project mixes jazz with contemporary beats and electronics. ‘Sco’ feels like a fish in water in this group, which plays as tight as the best funk bands.
John Scofield has played with Miles Davis until 1985. Following the example of his maestro he has combined jazz with funk, rock and hip-hop beats on his successful albums Überjam (2002) and Up All Night (2003). Now he’s back with the same band, in which rhythm guitarist Avi Botnick fuels the fire with adventurous electronic effects.
One set of 90 minutes, without intermission.
Afterwards a free concert at the Bimhuis by Chris Thile. Click here for more information.
