In a statement given to Billboard, Blue Note director of programming/talent buyer Alex Kurland said, “Robert Glasper is a significant and influential force at Blue Note and his annual residency is highly anticipated. Robert’s presence and impact at Blue Note have deeply inspired the culture, vibe and tone of the venue overall in a profound way. Robert’s influence and the impact of the residency is strongly felt year-round, and he has opened the door to many artists performing at Blue Note. The power of Robert’s residency is what inspired the concept of the annual Napa Festival we present, now in its third year. With this year’s Blue Note residency, Robert’s curation of special guest collaborations includes powerhouse artists RAYE, Common, Andra Day, Questlove and more, along with impromptu surprise guest moments.  Robert and his residency continue to shine and inspire.”

Aside from the aforementioned Robtober acts, a special performance will pay tribute to late Glasper collaborator and saxophonist Casey Benjamin. Among the performers on the Oct. 30 date at Sony Hall are Glasper, Chris Dave, Derrick Hodge and Stefon Harris. All proceeds from this event will benefit the Casey Benjamin Memorial Fund.
