Jill Scott
The Roots
Common
Musiq Soulchild


Jill Scott's debut album hit the shelves in 2000-back when there were shelves to hit-and proceeded to go double platinum, riding the wave of late '90s/early '00s neo-soul popularity. Her next two albums, released '04 and '07, both went gold, and her latest in 2011, The Light of the Sun, hit number 1. Now she's on tour, coming to the Mountain Winery a day after her contemporary Maxwell. Scott's been in demand as a collaborator throughout her career, as she's known for her stunning range and songwriting prowess. (Stephen Layton)


Grammy Award-winning hip-hop trailblazers The Roots are one of the most influential groups in music. Known for their prolific lyrics and live instrumentation, the legendary Philadelphia crew is composed of Tariq "Black Thought" Trotter on vocals, Ahmir "questlove" Thompson on drums, Kamal Gray on keyboards, Frank Knuckles on percussion, Kirk "Captain Kirk" Douglas on guitar and Owen Biddle on bass. Garnering critical praise throughout their career, The Roots have firmly established themselves as a band with uncompromised artistic control and integrity. The Roots were previously the house band on the NBC show, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.


Academy Award, Golden Globe, Emmy and Grammy-winning artist, actor, and activist, Common continues to break down barriers with a multitude of critically acclaimed, diverse roles, and continued success at the box office. Following his 2011 memoir One Day It'll All Make Sense, Common's latest book Let Love Have the Last Word was released in May 2019. It shares Common's own unique, personal stories of the people and experiences that have led to a greater understanding of love and all it has to offer.


It's hard to imagine a performer working today with more heart and soul than Musiq Soulchild. With over a decade on the scene, the multiplatinum singer/songwriter brings a new depth to his meditations on life and love. "Soul music is something that you can't fake. You're just expressing yourself. That's the magic in my music."
