About The Event
The Cleveland Museum of art continues its performing arts series in Gartner Auditorium with an exciting performance featuring world-renowned drummer Nate Smith as he makes his Cleveland debut as a bandleader.
Smith is a drummer, composer, and producer from Chesapeake, Virginia. His visceral, instinctive, and deep-rooted style of drumming has led to three Grammy nominations and work with esteemed artists, including Pat Metheny, Dave Holland, Brittany Howard, Van Hunt, the Fearless Flyers, Norah Jones, and Somi. Smith fuses his original compositions with an eclectic mix of music, including everything from jazz and R & B to hip-hop and pop. His latest album, KINFOLK 2: See the Birds (released in September 2021 on Edition Records), is the highly anticipated follow-up to his 2017 Grammy-nominated album, KINFOLK: Postcards from Everywhere. In recent years, Smith’s viral videos have received millions of views, underscoring his popularity as one of the most influential drummers of his generation.
This evening, Smith performs alongside Tim Lefebvre on bass and Jason Lindner on piano and keyboards.
