Bruce Hornsby & The Noisemakers
Individual event tickets available 7/28
One of the most respected and creatively insatiable musicians performing today, Bruce Hornsby has continually redefined his sound since his breakthrough album The Way It Is.
From chart-topping pop to bluegrass, jazz, classical, and electronica, the Grammy winner’s genre-crossing career reflects a restless creative spirit. Early success led him to tour with Steve Winwood, Eurythmics, and the Grateful Dead, a group he joined for more than 100 performances over five years. Along the way, he has influenced artists such as Bon Iver and Ryan Adams and composed music for several of Spike Lee’s films.
Hornsby always delivers performances that are spontaneous and electrifying, and he makes his UMS debut in this concert with The Noisemakers, featuring material from throughout his storied career in addition to music from his new album, Indigo Park.

Bruce Hornsby has built one of the most diverse, collaborative, and adventurous careers in contemporary music. Drawing from a vast wellspring of American musical traditions, the singer/pianist/composer/bandleader has created a large and accomplished body of work and employed a vast array of stylistic approaches. Throughout this period, Hornsby has maintained the integrity, virtuosity, and artistic curiosity that have been hallmarks of his work from the start.
Hornsby and his band The Range’s first album, The Way It Is (1986), was steadily and slowly building in popularity in the U.S. when, in August, the title track exploded on BBC Radio One in England, then Europe, the rest of the world, and finally in the United States. The record went on to sell three million records, the band played Saturday Night Live and opened for Steve Winwood, John Fogerty, Huey Lewis, the Grateful Dead and the Eurythmics before becoming headliners on their own tour supported by Crowded House.
