About

Ten-time Grammy winner Bobby McFerrin celebrates the transcendence of the spirit with a heartfelt reimagining of African-American Spirituals. Popularly known as the guy who sang Don’t Worry, Be Happy, McFerrin is a matchless vocal improviser with a breathtaking range who “transforms a concert hall into a playground, a village center, a joyous space” (LA Times). With his new project and an 11-piece band, McFerrin pays homage to the songs of his father and the generations of Americans who shared joy and pain through spirituals. An enrapturing performer with limitless imagination and ability, join McFerrin for an evening of community spirit and fun.
