Turtle Island QuartetAbout
At the peak of his creative powers in the late 1960s, Jimi Hendrix redefined the potential of not only the guitar but the entire genre of rock. Armed with an unprecedented combination of technical skills and compositional insight, he drew a blueprint that continues to challenge guitarists in particular and musicians of all stripes more than four decades later.
In many ways, the Turtle Island Quartet - which is led by founding violinist David Balakrishnan, a Hendrix fan since his teenage years - has taken Hendrix’s cue in the course of their 25-year career, by re-examining and reconstructing conventional genres of music and seeking new permutations of style, technique and composition.
This ongoing mission of exploration and innovation was most recently exemplified in their Grammy winning 2007 recording, A Love Supreme: The Legacy of John Coltrane, in which the quartet reinterprets the music of one of the most pivotal figures in the history of jazz by injecting it with their own signature rhythmic innovations and multicultural influences.
