Bill Frisell: When You Wish Upon A Star with Haden, Morgan & Royston

Bill Frisell's When You Wish Upon A Star featuring Petra Haden on vocals, Thomas Morgan on bass and Rudy Royston on drums will be playing at The Blue Note on October 16, 2016.

Frisell's career spans more than 25 years and is hailed as a visionary presence in American music. He has released 25 albums of his own as guitarist, composer and bandleader as well as collaborated with a wide range of artists, filmmakers and legendary musicians.

The New York Times described Frisell’s music this way. “It's hard to find a more fruitful meditation on American music than in the compositions of guitarist Bill Frisell. Mixing rock and country with jazz and blues, he's found what connects them: improvisation and a sense of play. Unlike other pastichists, who tend to duck passion, Mr. Frisell plays up the pleasure in the music and also takes on another often-avoided subject, tenderness."
