Nashville Symphony | Enrico Lopez-Yañez, conductor | Jefferson Starship
When founding member Paul Kantner split from Jefferson Airplane and formed Jefferson Starship in the '70s, he envisioned the band as a cast of musical adventurers, contributing to his epic concept albums and eventual deep catalog of rock classics. When the current lineup of the band came together alongside Kantner as a unit in 2012, with many members joining years before, he couldn't have imagined that the band would become the road-conquering heroes they've been in the last few years.
Now their music is reborn in this special collaboration with the Nashville Symphony.
In addition to original member David Freiberg, the band includes drummer Donny Baldwin (whose Jefferson Starship roots go back to 1982), keyboardist Chris Smith (who joined in 1998), guitarist Jude Gold (who joined in 2012), and singer and guitarist Cathy Richardson (who joined in 2008), after Kantner saw her tour with Big Brother and the Holding Company.
