Seven-time GRAMMY winner and two-time Oscar nominee is intimate and live for two concerts in the 240-seat SECU Auditorium at NCMA celebrating the 20th anniversary of his seminal album, FLOW. A record inspired by Miles Davis’ landmark groups of the late 1960s and early 1970s, FLOW “treated jazz like a smorgasbord” (PopMatters) in its use of electric instruments, deep funk grooves and a collage of global influences. The album, produced by Herbie Hancock, was a landmark for Blanchard, one that pointed towards his continually fascinating evolution as an artist and composer.
