💥MESHELL NDEGEOCELLO La ganadora del Grammy Mejor Album de Jazz Alternativo. 📍Mar 20 de mayo 20.00 y 22.30h 📍Mie 21 de mayo 20.00 y 22.30h 🎫 Entradas a la venta en www.bebopclub.com.ar o en Uriarte 1658 Palermo Bebop Club presenta a una de las artistas más importantes del momento, multinstrumentista, cantante, compositora y productora, y reciente ganadora de su segundo premio Grammy, Meshell Ndegeocello. Llega a Buenos Aires con toda su banda para presentar su último trabajo discográfico, No More Water: The Gospel of James Baldwin (Best Jazz Alternative Album Grammy 2025), el Martes 20 y Miércoles 21 de mayo, a las 20 y 22.30h. Las entradas están a la venta en www.bebopclub.com.ar o en Uriarte 1658 Palermo de 17 a 20h. Meshell Ndegeocello ha sobrevivido a lo mejor y lo peor que una carrera en la música puede ofrecer. Ha dejado de lado los géneros en favor de la originalidad, la fama por la longevidad y las tendencias musicales por verdades musicales. Sus seguidores han aprendido a esperar lo inesperado y a acompañarla en sus viajes sonoros a través del soul, el R&B, el jazz, el hip-hop y el rock, todos ellos unidos por la búsqueda del amor, la justicia, el respeto y la resolución. Esas exploraciones sonoras han desafiado y redefinido las expectativas sobre las mujeres, los artistas queer y la música negra durante más de 30 años, y sigue siendo una de las pocas mujeres que componen la música, cantan las canciones y lideran la banda. Bajista por encima de todo, Meshell aporta su groove cálido, profundo y melódico a cada proyecto que emprende. Ha ganado un premio Grammy, además de haber sido nominada en múltiples ocasiones, y ha tocado junto a The Rolling Stones, Madonna, Alanis Morissette, James Blood Ulmer, The Blind Boys of Alabama, Tony Allen, John Medeski, Billy Preston y Chaka Khan. En cuanto a sus influencias como bajista, menciona a Sting, Jaco Pastorius, Family Man Barrett y Stevie Wonder. Meshell siempre se siente agradecida por la oportunidad de compartir el escenario y considera que la música es una forma de comunión. Su objetivo es transmitir ese mensaje en cada creación y colaboración.
❤️
These are deeply challenging times, marked by grief, despair, and overwhelming real-life struggles. We’ve witnessed friends and families lose their homes and everything they hold dear. Schools, temples, small businesses—and even the delicate balance of our wildlife ecosystems—have all been affected. The recovery for our communities will likely take years, if not decades. In moments like these, we turn to the powerful medicine of music, dance, song, art, and the strength of community to begin healing. We hope that you can join us for a very special moment of healing and soul searching as @officialmeshell brings No More Water: The Gospel of James Baldwin to life.

The Gullah Basket has been in continuous production since the Ist century. Low Country Coil Basketry is one of the Oldest crafts of African origin in America. Today they are purchased by museums and art collectors throughout the World. Each basket reflects the cultural history of a unique people. Each is an original sculpture that reveals the artists’ skills as both designer and technician. A baskets value increases with its age and with proper care, it will last indefinitely.
