Esperanza Spalding Announces European Tour
The acclaimed bassist, composer, singer, and producer Esperanza Spalding is currently performing with her Emily’s D+Evolution project in California and Arizona before embarking to Japan where she plays Tokyo, Toyama, and Nagoya.
Her project draws heavily from experimental theater and literature movements and earlier this week, her European tour dates were announced. “Emily is my middle name, and I’m using this fresh persona as my inner navigator. This project is about going back and reclaiming un-cultivated curiosity, and using it as a compass to move forward and expand. My hope for this group is to create a world around each song, there are a lot of juicy themes and stories in the music. We will be staging the songs as much as we play them, using characters, video, and the movement of our bodies.”
