The Bad Plus

Saturday, February 7, 2009, 8:00 PM
Cullen Theater, Wortham Theater Center

This collective of bassist Reid Anderson,
pianist Ethan Iverson and drummer
David King is known for complementing
original repertoire with their takes on
mainstream pop “standards” including
ABBA, Black Sabbath, the Bee Gees,
Queen, Blondie, Aphex Twin, Neil Young
and Björk.

“Better than anyone at mixing the
sensibilities of post-60’s jazz and
indie rock.”— The New York Times

“...high art, not pop gimmickry
...The Bad Plus embrace sonic
adventure without selfish
avant-gardism...seething with
funky new-millennium rhythms
and succulent harmonic flights.
