Esperanza Spalding will be a featured performer on the 84th Annual Academy Awards, this Sunday, February 26, 2012.
On March 20th, 2012, Heads Up International, a division of Concord Music Group, gives us Spalding’s latest release, Radio Music Society, her most diverse, ambitious and masterful recital yet.
11 of the 12 songs are accompanied by conceptual short films, which further express Esperanza’s inspiration and story behind each track.
Shot in various locations including New York City; Barcelona, Spain; and Portland, Oregon; all films will be available to purchasers of Radio Music Society as a digital download or on a DVD in the deluxe version.
