Meshell Ndegeocello & Band
The US-American presents her mix of soul, spoken word, R&B, jazz, hip hop and rock for the first time in Leipzig
The US-American Meshell Ndegeocello presents her unique mix of soul, spoken word, R&B, jazz, hip hop and rock. Anyone who has ever seen the Berlin-born bandleader, bassist and singer live knows: you have to expect the unexpected from her! Ndegeocello's music with its thoroughly critical lyrics testifies to a poetic, spiritual search for love, respect, justice and happiness. Groove and melody always play a big role - just like making music together: "When I write songs, program beats on the laptop and record demos, I have my own experiences in with it in my room, on the plane or in the hotel. And then I get together with my musicians, with whom I have an intimate musical relationship, and we then breathe life into the pieces."
Also performing that evening at the Opera House: The Bad Plus as well as the winning band of the BMW Welt Young Artist Jazz Award 2016.
Tickets between 19 and 50 euros since July 1, 2016 at all known sales points.
