The HodgePodge Plays Pastorius: The Music of Jaco

Nashville based jazz/funk/pop collective the HodgePodge pays tribute to Jaco Pastorius’ work and life, performing music he wrote, as well as compositions from others that featured him.

Led by bassist Alex Hodge, the HodgePodge features some of the most young and versatile jazz musicians and sidemen in the area, with each member keeping full calendars on the road or in town with various artists. The HodgePodge plays a mix of classic pop and funk for crowd-pleasing and accessible gigs, but this is their first foray into paying tribute to one of the greatest fusion jazz musicians of all time: Jaco Pastorius.

Few instrumentalists can trace the evolution of their craft to a single source, but with the bass guitar it's undeniably clear that Jaco redefined the instrument's capabilities and role within an ensemble. Whether he was leading his own bands, playing in Weather Report, or accompanying artists such as Joni Mitchell and Herbie Hancock, Jaco had a singular voice that uplifted both his own compositions and those of his collaborators.
