ONE OF THE most celebrated acoustic and electric bass players in the world—and new artist in residence at BroadStage—Stanley Clarke and his band N•4EVER present a night of jazz harmony, rock, funk, R&B, hip-hop, fusion and more on March 9. Clarke is a fourtime Grammy Award-winning jazz bassist, recording artist and composer. N•4EVER features Jeremiah Collier on drums, Beka Gochiashvili

on piano and keyboards, Colin Cook on guitar, Emilio Modeste on saxophone, and, of course, Stanley on acoustic and electric bass; together, they deliver electrifying performances that push the boundaries of their instruments. BroadStage’s three-year appointment of Clarke as artist in residence includes not only performances but also mentoring for Santa Monica College and local-school-district music students,

providing access to and training by Clarke for those on the cusp of professional careers. “There has never been a more important time to enliven the culture of creativity than the times we are living in,” Clarke says. “Technological advancement in the arts is taking people further away from the one-of-a-kind experience of being exposed to quality live music.” 1310 11th St., Santa Monica, 310.434.3200, broadstage.org
