Esperanza Spalding
The jazz bassist and singer stunned the music world when she took the Best New Artist Grammy from (gasp!) Justin Bieber. How dare she. The win was well deserved, though, as her music spans cultures, genres, and instruments and is as complex as it is approachable. The Orpheum is an appropriately regal spot to catch the budding star on September 30, 2011 at 8 p.m., at Orpheum Theatre
