Six-time Grammy Award-winning musician, producer, and composer Don Was [Was (Not Was)] channels the soul of the Motor City through a blend of steamy jazz, juke-joint blues, and loose-limbed funk with the Pan-Detroit Ensemble.The Pan-Detroit Ensemble is comprised of top-tier jazz musicians from Don’s hometown, including longtime collaborator saxophonist Dave McMurray and Eminem’s Oscar-winning collaborator, keyboardist Luis Resto. Additional members include trombonist Vincent Chandler, trumpeter John Douglas, drummer Jeff Canaday, percussionist Mahindi Masai, guitarist Wayne Gerard, and vocalist Steffanie Christi’an.
“There’s a unique sound and feel to Detroit that permeates the music in a way that resonates all over the globe,” says Was. “There’s a rawness, a lack of pretension, and an unmistakable underlying groove that reflects the people and culture of the entire city.”
After the concert, enjoy a beverage and more music at the Postlude Performance featuring a local emerging artist in the Leslie & Anna Dan Galleria.
