Bruce Hornsby has never been afraid of musical collaboration. In a 50-year career, his explorations have paired him with everyone from Elton John, Sting, Bon Iver and Chaka Khan to Bob Dylan, Roger Waters, The Doobie Brothers and bluegrass bigwig, Ricky Skaggs. He’s written songs with Don Henley, was sampled by Tupac Shakur and guested with Clannad. He’s scored soundtracks for Spike Lee, toured with Pat Metheny and spent a couple of years as keyboardist with the Grateful Dead.
His latest release, then, should come as no surprise: an album with experimental chamber ensemble, yMusic.
