Terri Lyne Carrington + Social Science

Grammy and Doris Duke Award winner, NEA Jazz Master, and founder of the Berklee College of Music’s Institute of Jazz and Gender Justice, Terri Lyne Carrington has centered activism throughout her four-decade career as a drummer, producer, and educator, and earned the admiration of Herbie Hancock, Dianne Reeves, and Esperanza Spalding along the way. With her ensemble, Social Science, Carrington enters her next era of “story-filled groove-music” (NPR’s Tiny Desk) that merges crafted instrumentals, soulful R&B vocals, and poetic rap into consciousness-raising songs in the lineage of The Last Poets and Gil Scott-Heron. Come out for inspiring music that puts today’s world into perspective.
