Serious

Esperanza Spalding

Bassist, vocalist and composer Esperanza Spalding's musical style spans jazz fusion, Latin, Brazilian and even a touch of hip-hop.

"Simply sensational. Dancing in white stilettos and Afro-crowned like a young Roberta Flack, she proved a sweet-voiced balladeer, funky scat-singer, seriously gifted songwriter and dazzling double-bassist." The Evening Standard
