Fourplay at the North Charleston Performing Arts Center
June 7, 2014
Bob James, Nathan East, Harvey Mason and Chuck Loeb - The Fourplay story begins in 1990, with keyboardist Bob James, who had already established himself as a formidable figure in keyboard jazz – not just as an instrumentalist but as a composer and arranger as well – with solo recordings dating as far back as the mid 1960s. In 1990, James reunited with his old friend, session drummer, producer, composer & recording artist Harvey Mason (Herbie Hancock, Barbra Streisand, Notorious B.I.G.), during the recording of James’ Grand Piano Canyon album. The Grand Piano Canyon sessions marked the genesis of the group that eventually came to be known as Fourplay.
