Meshell Ndegeocello, Joshua Redman June 24, 2005

Since her introduction as a new generation soul singer in 1993, Meshell Ndegeocello has created a body of music that defies categorization. Featuring her spirited vocals, which were brought to the world on her 1994 duet ?Wild Night? with John Mellencamp, and extraordinary bass playing, her new band Spirit Music Jamia brings contemporary rhythm & blues to a whole new level. One of the most popular jazz saxophonists of the past decade, Joshua Redman brings his current group, Elastic Band to The Egg hot on the heels of the release of its new recording Momentum.
