He then took training under Pandit Manilal Nag of Bishnupur Gharana. Later on, he took intensive training from his uncle, Pandit Kartick Kumar, who is a senior disciple of Pandit Ravi Shankar.

Shirley Horn Trio, The Garden of the Blues (Steeplechase)

According to his website, Charles Lloyd is performing opening night. March 21, 2024 – Big Ears – Knoxville, TN “THE SKY WILL ALWAYS BE HERE” featuring Jason Moran, Larry Grenadier, and Eric Harland

According to his website, Herbie Hancock will be performing at Big Ears on Saturday, March 23. There are no adjacent tour dates or indication of the nature of the performance. How about a solo performance?

The additions are a bit underwhelming, except I like Leyla McCalla, but the previously announced line-up seems strong to me.

NEW ADDITIONS FOR 2024 Today, Big Ears unveils an array of over a dozen artists who will be joining the 2024 festival lineup, including the Grammy Award-winning Jon Batiste, a special and rare trio performance by John Medeski, Joe Russo, and Marc Ribot, and the soulful and introspective storytelling of Bonnie “Prince” Billy. These latest additions add a dynamic new element to the festival’s deepest and most diverse lineup yet, offering fans even more opportunity for sonic exploration and discovery at Big Ears 2024. Jon Batiste, the dazzlingly gifted member of the legendary New Orleans musical Batiste dynasty, brings his irrepressible spirit to Big Ears. Having garnered five 2022 Grammy Awards (out of 11 nominations) – including Album of the Year for We Are –along with an Oscar, Golden Globe, and more for his score for Pixar's animated film Soul, Batiste released his latest album, World Music Radio, in August and is the subject of a soon-to-be released documentary film, American Symphony. Building on the festival’s celebration of Marc Ribot’s 70th birthday, the guitarist joins forces for a rare trio performance with keyboardist John Medeski and drummer Joe Russo. In addition to his appearance with the trio, Russo will also treat festival-goers to the mesmerizing sounds of his newly formed ensemble, the Selcouth Quartet featuring Stuart Bogie, Jonathan Goldberger and Jon Shaw. The 2024 Big Ears adventure expands further with the soulful and introspective storytelling of Bonnie “Prince” Billy, the multi-dimensional folk stylings of Our Native Daughters co-founder Leyla McCalla who will share new music from her forthcoming album, and a performance from Kristin Hersh of Throwing Muses fame in celebration of the 30th anniversary of her beloved solo record, Hips and Makers. Co-founder of the Lounge Lizards Evan Lurie is set to perform with his quintet featuring Greg Cohen, Jill Jaffe, Marc Ribot, and the enchanting sounds of the bandoneon from Julien Labro. Together they will present a rare performance of songs from Lurie’s first two albums, Pieces for Bandoneon and Selling Water By the Side of the River. The Chinese American pipa master Min Xiao-Fen collaborates with River Guerguerian for a program of original live scores to Chinese silent film classics Romance of the Fruit Peddler and Romance of the Western Chamber; Grammy award-winning multi-instrumentalist Francesco Turrisi presents a program of solo piano; and Paul Lazar performs the critically acclaimed spoken-word and movement solo Cage Shuffle based on texts from composer John Cage with choreography by Annie-B Parson. Rounding out the additions, the duo of prolific new age artist Laraaji and world-renowned tabla player Suphala perform a program of ambient and world music blending celestial sounds and rhythmic beats as part of the King Britt-curated Blacktronika program; Slauson Malone 1 (the musical project and performance piece of Jasper Marsalis) explores the intersections of pop music and performance art; Ka Baird weaves together experimental electronic and folk elements into a captivating sonic tapestry; and Jana Horn coaxes listeners into introspection with her jewel-cut lyrics.

They played at the Caravan of Dreams in Fort Worth in August of 1987. It was great. They played Scott-Free for like an hour. Blew the roof off the place. In the second set, Max Roach took his snare drum and a high hat to the front of the stage and played a history of jazz drumming. Amazing.
