Sometimes you have to shake things up, push a little farther, reach a little higher – even when you’re a contemporary jazz foursome that’s been operating at the top of its collective game for two decades.

After twenty years and a dozen albums, in an industry that has undergone sweeping transformations in the past decade, Fourplay knows that the only thing that’s certain, in music or any other business, is change.

We are heartbroken to report that one of our foursome, bassist Nathan East, has unfortunately ruptured his Achilles tendon. He is scheduled to have surgery on it this Saturday, August 7th, at the Southern California Orthopedic Institute.

In the interim, standing in on bass with Fourplay for the upcoming August performances, is our dear friend and Nathan’s mentor, Dr. Abraham Laboriel Sr. The Fourplay family wishes Nathan a speedy recovery, expecting him to be back on tour with them by September. Thank you to Abraham and all of our family, friends, and fans; we appreciate your loving support!
