    Filoli is extremely pleased to present the renowned jazz bassist, Buster Williams. His big, deep, resilient and inventive playing has made him the bassist of choice throughout the jazz world. For Filoli, the Something More quartet will include Bennie Maupin, reeds (Buster's bandmate from Herbie Hancock's sextet); Patrice Rushen, keyboards (considered one of the world's top jazz pianists); and Cindy Blackman, drums (one of the busiest artists since leaving Lenny Kravitz last year). After hearing Something More, the Filoli audience will leave “wanting more” from Buster and these great musicians.

    Buster Williams is a prodigious artist whose playing knows no limits. He has played, recorded and collaborated with jazz giants such as Art Blakey, Betty Carter, Carmen McRae, Chet Baker, Chick Corea, Dexter Gordon, Jimmy Heath, Wynton Marsalis, Sonny Stitt, Herbie Hancock, McCoy Tyner, Nancy Wilson, Miles Davis, the Jazz Crusaders, Ron Garter, Woody Shaw, Sarah Vaughan, Cedar Walton, Sonny Rollins, Count Basie, Dakota Staton, Freddie Hubbard, to name a few.
