Robert Glasper

Soundcheck | May 3, 2010
With his 2007 album, jazz pianist Robert Glasper made it to several best-of-the-year lists covering hip-hop producer J Dilla and combining Herbie Hancock with Radiohead. On his new record, Double Booked, he continues to explore the jazzy side of hip-hop, and adds some country to that mix. He will play live for us.
