Bela Fleck & The Flecktones Concert

Bend Community Radio proudly presents
Bela Fleck and the Flecktones w/ special guests Alash

Bela Fleck and the Flecktones draw on bluegrass, jazz and fusion influences to create a unique, modern improvisational style of music. They mix together Bela Fleck’s acoustic and electric banjos, the bass and percussion rhythm section of brothers Victor Wooten and Futureman, and the saxophone of Jeff Coffin in music sometimes dubbed “blu-bop.

Alash—guest artists on the Flecktones “Jingle All the Way” holiday CD—are masters of Tuvan throat singing, a remarkable technique for singing multiple pitches at the same time. The four members of the group also play traditional instruments from their native land in Siberia and toured with the Flecktones in 2008 and 2009.

Price: Ticket prices range from  $33 to $47
