The Bottom Line
15 W. Fourth Street

212-228-6300

Grammy-nominated guitarist Mike Stern, a noted solo artist, guitar hero, and veteran of bands such as Miles Davis, Steps Ahead, and The Brecker Brothers, returns to The Bottom Line with two of his favorite collaborators: Drummer Dennis Chambers (now with Santana) and bassist Victor Wooten (of Bela Fleck & the Flecktones fame). Rounding out the band is Stern's regular saxophonist, Bob Franceschini.

One cannot underestimate the enthusiastic following for these musicians: For example, last year they sold out an entire week of two-sets-a-night performances at Yoshi's in Oakland, California.

Mike, Vic, and Dennis infrequently play together anymore (due to their busy schedules) -- this is a rare opportunity to hear their powerful -- and very musical -- interplay on stage.

The always-in-demand Chambers has a brand new CD, OUTBREAK, on the ESC label.

The Bottom Line is located at 15 W. Fourth St, in NYC's Greenwich Village. All seats are $22.50; shows at 7:30 and 10:30pm. For more information call 212.228.6300 or go to http://www.bottomlinecabaret.com

“Stern is probably our favorite, most consistent 'live' guitarist... [ his music ] combined beauty and brute force." - Keith & Kent Zimmerman, JazzWeek

“... a monster of a guitarist." - Steve Graybow, Billboard

“...always an imaginative player." - Don Heckman, The Los Angeles Times
