Purposefully prolific and creatively visionary, Jon Batiste has channeled his transformative musical gifts into nine studio albums, an Oscar-winning film score, a symphony, a Grammy-winning documentary, and countless musical projects and collaborations. He released 2025’s Big Money—which Rolling Stone called “a deeply enjoyable left turn towards roots music”—off the back of his Maestro Tour (which included a stop at Walt Disney Concert Hall), an acclaimed Super Bowl performance, and his 2024 solo piano album Beethoven Blues, which topped the Billboard Classical Crossover and Classical Albums charts for nine consecutive weeks. Showing no sign of slowing down, Batiste continues to reach back into his cultural roots, reworking the sounds of many musical traditions and propelling them forward in a celebration of collective expression. Featuring cross-genre explorations through jazz, rock ‘n’ roll, gospel, blues, classical music, and sounds from around the world, Batiste’s Hollywood Bowl headlining debut promises to be a joyful, virtuosic, and spiritually transcendent entry into his expansive musical world.
