The Bad Plus

By Liz Bulkley on Thursday, February 22, 2007.

The Bad Plus is a jazz band known for its rock 'n' roll influence and its covers of pop tunes. They write most of their own material, but they also perform renditions of songs by Blondie, Nirvana, and Black Sabbath, just to name a few. Tonight we'll hear from the group's members and explore the significance of being a cohesive band in a field that's dominated by rotating line-ups.
