See The Roots and Trombone Shorty, two of the most acclaimed acts in jazz and hip-hop, in a one-of-a-kind double-bill performance at the Chautauqua Institution Amphitheater. The Roots have become one of the best known and most respected hip-hop acts in the business, winning four Grammys, including “Best R&B Album” for Wake Up!, “Best Traditional R&B Vocal Performance” for “Hang in There” (with John Legend) and “Best Group or Duo R&B Vocal Performance” for “Shine.” Trombone Shorty’s new album — Laveau Dirge No. 1, named after one of the city’s most famous voodoo queens contains multitudes of sound — from brass band blare and deep-groove funk, to bluesy beauty and hip-hop/pop swagger — and plenty of emotion all anchored, of course, by stellar playing.
