The pianist and former child prodigy BLKBOK (pronounced “Black Bach”) was born and raised in Detroit and used his classical training as a springboard through the worlds of pop and hip-hop. Since then he’s been music directing and playing in bands of artists from Justin Timberlake to Rihanna. His acclaimed debut solo recording, Black Book, is a modern masterpiece; live in concert, he places his solo compositions into cultural context with spoken word/poetry intros.
