Members Geoff Grace Posted August 29, 2010 Members Share Posted August 29, 2010 I don't think we've had an Esperanza Spalding thread here, and yet she seems to be saturating the media these days. I just caught her on Austin City Limits. Great talent! Here's a clip from the show: [YOUTUBE]wpvQUzPdBLY[/YOUTUBE] Best, Geoff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Geoff Grace Posted August 29, 2010 Author Members Share Posted August 29, 2010 I forgot to mention that in the clip above, Esperanza performed Milton Nascimento's "Ponta De Areia" with her backup band -- Leo Genovese on piano, Ricardo Vogt on guitar, Otis Brown III on drums, and all of them singing.

Members Karma1 Posted September 6, 2010 Members Share Posted September 6, 2010 She is awesome. The first time I saw her was on PBS where she played at the White House for a Stevie Wonder tribute. I've also seen her on another PBS program as well as this Austin City Limits show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
