A tribute. A revival. A revolution in sound.
Experience Zawinul Legacy Band 3.0 as they bring the legendary music of Joe Zawinul & Weather Report to life in a bold, electrifying tribute to one of the finest Jazz musicians ever.
Legendary musician Joe Zawinul was one of the most influential jazz musicians of the 20th century. He was a pioneer in the use of electronic musical instruments, bringing the electric piano into the mainstream, and possessed an unparalleled ability to make the synthesizer an expressive musical instrument. He composed some of the best-known standards in jazz, including “Mercy, Mercy, Mercy” and “Birdland.” With Wayne Shorter, Joe founded and led Weather Report, arguably the most successful band of post-’60s jazz. His unique ability to combine jazz with ethnic music from around the world blazed the trail for what would later be called “world music.” Ultimately, Joe carved out a unique musical voice that is immediately identifiable and defies categorization.
