Concert: Christian McBride & Edgar Meyer

The meeting of great minds usually happens behind closed doors, but for two of the world’s foremost bassists—Christian McBride and Edgar Meyer—the collaboration proved so fruitful that a duo album, But Who’s Gonna Play the Melody?, exploring their collective backgrounds, was born.

Now the duo is hitting the road, and we can’t wait to present them at the Lensic. The legendary bassists will meld McBride’s jazz and R&B fusion with Meyer’s bluegrass and classical sensibilities for what is sure to be an unforgettable performance of new compositions and timeless American standards.
