Bela Fleck & The Flecktones

Description

The eOne Music Group is excited to herald the success of Bela Fleck and the Flecktones's recent release, Rocket Science. The highly anticipated reunion record, which marks their first recording together in 20 years, immediately jumped to #1 on both Billboard's Jazz Charts and Soundscan's Jazz Charts. Released on May 17th to resounding critical acclaim, Rolling Stone noted that Rocket Science "finds the Grammy Award-winning group still in fine progressive form."

The Flecktones' North American tour route began in May with a stop at the Summer Camp Festival in Chillicothe' IL, followed by a pair of spectacular performances at the Bonnaroo Festival of Music and Arts and the Telluride Bluegrass Festival--some of the strongest of their nearly 25 year career. The Flecktones will also play four major jazz festivals in Canada; Saskatchewan, Toronto, Ottawa, and Montreal.

The collaboration of Bela Fleck (banjo), Howard Levy (piano/harmonica), Victor Wooten (bass), and Roy "Futureman" Wooten (percussion/Drumitar) has been leaving audiences mesmerized, surprising fans with groundbreaking compositions and nontraditional improvisation. After a recent show, the Charleston City Paper declared, "[their] virtuosity is so pervasive that it's actually more efficient to leave your dropped jaw on the ground and simply wait to pick it up until the band stops playing."
