Grammy-nominated guitarist Mike Stern, a noted solo artist, guitar hero, and veteran of bands such as Miles Davis, Steps Ahead, and The Brecker Brothers, returns to The Bottom Line with two of his favorite collaborators: Drummer Dennis Chambers (now with Santana) and bassist Victor Wooten (of Bela Fleck & the Flecktones fame). Rounding out the band is Stern's regular saxophonist, Bob Franceschini.
One cannot underestimate the enthusiastic following for these musicians: For example, last year they sold out an entire week of two-sets-a-night performances at Yoshi's in Oakland, California.
Mike, Vic, and Dennis infrequently play together anymore (due to their busy schedules) -- this is a rare opportunity to hear their powerful -- and very musical -- interplay on stage.
The always-in-demand Chambers has a brand new CD, OUTBREAK, on the ESC label.
The Bottom Line is located at 15 W. Fourth St, in NYC's Greenwich Village. All seats are $22.50; shows at 7:30 and 10:30pm. For more information call 212.228.6300 or go to http://www.bottomlinecabaret.com
