In their 43-year history, the Yellowjackets have recorded 25 albums, received 17 Grammy nominations (2 of which they won), done countless sold-out tours and achieved worldwide critical acclaim and commercial success.
Over the years, the band has undergone several line-up changes. The current formation – Russell Ferrante, William Kennedy and Bob Mintzer – has never failed to meet the inevitable challenges of change. They have maintained an exceptionally high quality of musicianship that rivals many, but is a surprise to no one who knows and appreciates the band and their music.
The most recent addition to the band is Australian bassist Dane Alderson. With his exceptional rhythmic sensitivity and natural knack for groove, Dane brings a fresh energy to the band and adds a youthful approach to their music.
This concert is a collaboration of PAARD with ProJazz.
