VINCENT HERRING’S SOMETHING ELSE

This septet delivers a high-energy mix of beloved rhythmic tunes and original compositions, all with fresh arrangements that keep the spirit of the genre alive and vibrant. The lineup draws from a rotating pool of top-tier artists, including trumpet legends Jeremy Pelt and Freddie Hendrix; tenor saxophonists Eric Alexander and Wayne Scoffery; guitar virtuoso Paul Bollenback; pianists David Kikoski and Mike LeDonne; bassists Essiet Essiet and Yasushi Nakamura; and drummers Lewis Nash and Jonathan Blake. Together, they create exciting, danceable, and unforgettable performances that celebrate the rich tradition of Soul Jazz.
