10-time Grammy winner Bobby McFerrin blurs the lines between popular music and high art, inspiring a whole new generation of a cappella singers and the beatbox movement. His latest album, spirityouall, is a bluesy, feel-good recording, and an unexpected move from the music-industry rebel who singlehandedly redefined the role of the human voice with his a cappella hit “Don’t Worry, Be Happy,” his collaborations with Yo-Yo Ma, Chick Corea and the Vienna Philharmonic, his improvising choir Voicestra, and his legendary solo vocal performances. Spirityouall embraces Bobby’s folk, rock, and blues influences without abandoning his never-ending exploration of the human voice. With Gil Goldstein piano, electric piano, accordion, arranger, David Mansfield, violin, mandolin, National Resonator Guitar, lap steel, Armand Hirsch acoustic/electric guitar, Jeff Carney acoustic bass, Louis Cato drums, guitar, bass guitar, vocals, Madison McFerrin vocals.
