BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

During his childhood, Philadelphia-born Christian McBride was mentored by his father and great uncle -- both talented bass players. Hailed as a teen prodigy, McBride joined jazz saxophonist Bobby Watson's group at age 17 before going on to play in the bands of numerous other legends including Benny Golson, Milt Jackson, and J.J. Johnson. He made his album debut as a solo player in 1995 with Gettin' To It, and has released more than ten solo albums and toured extensively since then. Over the course of his decorated career he has collaborated with a number of jazz luminaries including Chick Corea and Herbie Hancock and played as a sideman with such diverse artists as Paul McCartney, Queen Latifah, and Celine Dion. Back on the road McBride will treat ticket buyers to his unforgettable musicianship on a string of highly anticipated dates.
