Nine-time GRAMMY award-winning bassist, composer and producer Christian McBride makes a BIG return as bandleader with his 21st studio album, Without Further Ado, Vol.1, his first big band album in five years since 2020’s GRAMMY-award winning For Jimmy, Wes & Oliver and the follow-up to 2024’s But Who’s Gonna Play the Melody?, his joint album with fellow bassist and composer Edgar Meyer.

Without Further Ado, Vol.1 is a star-studded affair featuring guest appearances by Sting, Andy Summers, Jeffrey Osborne, Samara Joy, José James, Cécile McLorin Salvant, Dianne Reeves and Antoinette Henry. The album features reimagined arrangements of classic songs coupled with the unique vocals brought to us by the guest vocalists.

With this new album, McBride continues to position himself at the forefront as the unofficial leader of the modern-day jazz renaissance. In addition to the multiple hats he wears, McBride is also the executive producer for R&B/Soul singer Ledisi’s tribute album, For Dinah, in honour of Dinah Washington, coming out October 3.

“I am absolutely thrilled to have Sting and Andy Summers — two-thirds of one of the most influential bands in history, The Police — join me for one of their songs,” says McBride “Sting continues to evolve gracefully as an artist, and Andy still plays with the sophisticated fire and grit he has always possessed. A huge thank you to both of them, as well as to the remarkable Pedrito Martinez, for bringing that special ‘thang’ that only he can provide.” (Christian McBride)
