About artist
Russell Ferrante – Keys/Piano
Bob Mintzer – Sax
Dane Alderson – Bass
William Kennedy – Drums
We are thrilled to welcome the legendary Yellowjackets back to Bohemia JazzFest for the third time — and for the first time in Prachatice and Hluboká.
Now in their fifth decade, the Yellowjackets continue to push forward with energy and creativity. Their latest album, Fasten Up — the quartet’s 27th release and seventh for Mack Avenue Records — captures the band’s spirit perfectly: bold, adventurous, and always moving ahead.
That forward momentum has defined the group throughout its history, driven not by speed alone but by a constant commitment to exploration and renewal. Today’s lineup features founding keyboardist Russell Ferrante, drummer Will Kennedy, saxophonist Bob Mintzer, and bassist Dane Alderson, who marks nearly a decade with the band.
