Co-director of the National Jazz Museum in Harlem, Christian Bassist, educator, composer, super sideman, and bandleader Christian McBride returns to Yoshi's with his own band featuring Geoff Keezer on piano, Ron Blake on saxophones and Terreon Gulley on drums. From Philadelphia, McBride has become the most acclaimed acoustic and electric bassist to emerge from the jazz world in the 1990s. His CDs on Verve as a leader and the literally hundreds of albums he has performed on showcase his funky style and big tone. His ever-expanding pop, R&B and fusion palette takes him around the world anchoring some of the best jazz groups today. He has performed with numerous artists including Joshua Redman, Sting, Chick Corea, The Roots, Diana Krall, D'Angelo, Betty Carter, McCoy Tyner, Roy Hargrove and Wynton Marsalis.
