Pat Metheny Unity Band
Salt Lake City
Sep 09 - Sep 09
Two shows in the same night: 7 pm and 9:30 pm

With Pat, you simply never know what is coming next. But among the many things that make this ever-changing artist so special is the consistent level of commitment and quality that he brings to everything he does. For the first time in more than 30 years, Pat features a tenor saxophone in the front line. The last, in fact the only, previous Metheny-led record to feature a horn player was the iconic and influential ECM recording 80/81. The Unity Band introduces a new Metheny ensemble of the same name with the amazing Chris Potter on sax and bass clarinet, longtime collaborator Antonio Sanchez on drums, and the up-and-coming Ben Williams on bass. The album features nine new Metheny compositions. Says Pat: "This is a group of musicians who can do just about anything."

Having Pat Metheny to The State Room is such a unique, thrilling opportunity. We have worked it out with Pat and the Unity Band to play two separate shows in the same night. Each show will be a complete show and we will clear the venue in-between shows. If you want to come to both shows you will need to purchase a ticket to each show.
