Esperanza Spalding

A thread for all things Esperanza.
Spotify has a comprehensive catalog of her studio stuff, & youtube has several live vids. Post your favorites or rare finds here.

Nice nice
Yes!
Among those who sing & play at once I think she's at the top of the heap. Imagine 10, 20 years from now.

Also check her out on Austin City Limits. Her first solo--no doubt she cooks!

For my birthday this year, my wife got us tickets to see Esperanza at the Apollo Theater this fall. Excited is an understatement.

Cool man happy birthday.
I'd love to see her there or any theater. NYC in the fall is my favorite time of year to go there. Nice
