Abstract Orchestra is redefining live hip-hop with their electrifying blend of jazz orchestration and hip-hop beats. This 18-piece all-star big band pushes musical boundaries, crafting a sound that is both powerful and beautiful.
Known for their masterful reinterpretations of hip-hop classics by legends like J Dilla and MADVILLAIN, Abstract Orchestra seamlessly blends these influences with their original compositions. Their live performances are a dynamic journey, shifting from dark and brooding to beautiful and moving, all while maintaining high energy and intensity.
The band has toured and recorded with hip-hop heavyweights like MF DOOM, Slum Village, and Talib Kweli, and their music draws from the rich traditions of Motown, jazz, and iconic film scores. The Next Chapter Tour marks a bold new era for Abstract Orchestra.
