Common Instagram – Glasshaus Presents: Bilal feat. Questlove, Common, Robert Glasper and Burniss Travis
(Gallery 2 of 2)
Grammy Award winning artist Bilal wore the many characters of his multi-dimensional music in a mid-career retrospective that transfixed the intimate audience at Glasshaus. His uncanny vocal range carved from falsetto to growl and everything in between, while Glasper and Travis extended arrangements, Common freestyled, and music director Questlove held court with the backstory of “Sometimes”.
This rare and historic reunion of collaborators performed “Something to Hold”, “All Matter”, “All For Love”, “Reminisce”, “Funky For You” (from Common’s “Like Water For Chocolate”), “Soul Sista”, “Sometimes”, “Humility” (debut), and “Levels”. Decades of friendship was obvious as much in their laughter between songs as it was within their unspoken musical chemistry.
Stay tuned for news of the live album and concert film due spring 2024 via @glasshaus
