Something Else!, a New Supergroup Led by Vincent Herring Revisits the Vital, Funky Grooves of an Unforgettable Era. This era of fantastic, rhythmic, and soul-warming music will be presented with new arrangements plus original compositions in the same genre with a bottomless feel. The approach to jazz that these stellar musicians take always comes with its fair share of soul, no matter the stylistic twists and turns it may take.
Vincent Herring learned first-hand from masters of feeling, swing and groove – an invaluable bandstand education forged alongside the legendary likes of Freddie Hubbard, Dizzy Gillespie, Art Blakey, Jack DeJohnette, Horace Silver, Carla Bley, Lionel Hampton and others, as well as integral collaborations with fellow torchbearers like Steve Turre, Carl Allen, Eric Alexander, Jon Faddis, Wynton Marsalis and James Carter.
