Béla Fleck, Edmar Castaneda, Antonio Sanchez Trio

Banjo. Drums. Harp. To be sure, the new all-star trio of Bela Fleck, harpist Edmar Castaneda and drummer Antonio Sanchez features instrumentation that might safely be called uncommon. Unless, of course, you're already familiar with 18-time Grammy winner Bela Fleck - the genre blurring virtuoso who has done more to expand the possibilities of the banjo than any other player in the instrument's history. From his bluegrass beginnings through his otherworldly Flecktones, his duo with Chick Corea and his reimagining of Rhapsody in Blue, Fleck's work never fails to surprise. Playing original repertoire, much of it collaboratively written, the trio embarks on fearless explorations that audiences will find irresistible - rich with strong melodies, gorgeous harmony and grooves that twist and turn.
