Jason Moran and the Bandwagon

Prodigy pianist and composer Jason Moran — “the most provocative thinker in current jazz,” according to Rolling Stone — plays MASS MoCA in connection with his exhibition Black Stars: Writing in the Dark with his trailblazing trio The Bandwagon. One of the most enduringly creative piano trios in jazz, The Bandwagon is Moran, bassist Tarus Mateen, and drummer Nasheet Waits, in whom Moran has found his ideal companions: two distinctive voices on their instruments who are restlessly creative and share his open-mindedness and diversity of influences beyond jazz or classical or hip hop to theater, film, dance, and beyond.
