Incognito

Tue, 12. Nov 2013, 9.45 PM | SMOOTH & FUNKY

Event Halle, Messe Basel

What is better in music: long-term relationships or temporary collaborations? The pianist Joe Sample prefers the first; he has performed with the same people for a lifetime, for example with the singer Randy Crawford. In 1979, they had the hit «Street Life» and this became the foundation of a long music partnership. «Incognito» bandleader Jean-Paul «Bluey» Maunick is less sentimental. Professionalism is his primary concern, no matter how long a musician has been in the band. The result is the same: dance funk that gets you right up on your feet!

The festival management of the BALOISE SESSION announces that Randy Crawford will perform with Leon Bisquera. Joe Sample cannot currently join the tour due to illness. The BALOISE SESSION team sends Joe Sample our best wishes for a speedy recovery.

The second concert of the evening with Incognito will take place as planned.

We would like to thank our audience and our partners for their understanding and we apologize for any inconvenience caused.
