John Scofield’s Electrospective lands at City Winery Atlanta on Sunday, October 25, with performances advertised at 5 and 8:30 p.m. The band includes bassist Oteil Burbridge, keyboardist Larry Goldings and drummer Adam Deitch.
Scofield is revisiting groove-heavy music associated with his Blue Matter, Uberjam and A Go Go periods rather than playing a straight-ahead jazz set. That should mean deep pocket, guitar tone and a great rhythm section—an attractive night for anyone who likes musicianship more than spectacle.
The official listing for the 8:30 p.m. show starts at $102. Check both performance times and available seats before making a decision; this is the sort of show where choosing the smaller room matters.
