Béla Fleck & The Flecktones at Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts

About

Groundbreaking banjoist, composer, and bandleader Bela Fleck has reconvened the original Bela Fleck & The Flecktones. Rocket Science marks the first recording by the first fab four Flecktones in almost two decades. Alongside Bela Fleck is pianist/harmonica player Howard Levy, bassist Victor Wooten, and percussionist/Drumitarist Roy “Futureman” Wooten creating some of the most forward-thinking music of their long, storied career.

Fusing all manners of genres from classical and jazz to electrical blues and Eastern European folk dance, the result is a sound of their own. Simply put, it is The Flecktones, the music made only when these four individuals come together.
