THE BIG BEAT Live Soul-Funk Meets Electronic Beats

featuring Nate Smith + The Nth Power + Break Science

Powered by Percussive Arts Society

This exclusive one-off special event unites the unstoppable, sharp-edged precision of Nate Smith, the deep-groove soul elevation of The Nth Power and the heavy hip-hop break beats of Break Science.

Nate Smith is a Grammy Award-winning polymath musician — bandleader, composer, producer, and virtuosic drummer — whose groundbreaking work as a recording artist and performer in multiple genres has made him a unique figure in popular culture and one of the most in-demand players of our generation.

The Nth Power features female powerhouse Nikki Glaspie, Beyonce’s world-touring drummer for five years before she joined Ivan Neville's New Orleans funk outfit, Dumpstaphunk. Bassist Nate Edgar (Groovechild, John Brown's Body) perfectly compliments singer and guitarist Nick Cassarino (Jennifer Hartswick Band, Big Daddy Kane.)

Steeped in the traditions of East Coast hip hop and futuristic soundwaves of the now, the Denver-based duo Break Science continues to scale creative mountains. Composed of keyboardist/producer/jazz pianist Borahm Lee (Pretty Lights Live Band) and funk/hip-hop drummer extraordinaire Adam Deitch (Lettuce, AWB, Meshell Ndegeocello), Break Science traces roots to the embryonic seeds that flowered the electro-soul movement.
