Marcus Roberts Trio Announce Tour With Bela Fleck

Legendary jazz pianist Marcus Roberts has announced a full tour with the Marcus Roberts trio, this time featuring Grammy award winning banjo player Bela Fleck. Fleck joined the trio to jam at the 2009 Savannah Music Festival, which eventually led to the composition of a full length album. ‘Across The Imaginary Divide’ was released earlier this summer to critical acclaim, and this tour promises to be a rare opportunity to catch the trio and Fleck together.
