The Wooten brothers first public performance occurred in Hawaii in 1966 and established their identity as prodigies. Since then, Victor Wooten & the Wooten Brothers (brothers Regi, Roy & Jospeh) have racked up 10 Grammy wins, and 26, yes, 26 Grammy nominations. And the youngest of the family, Victor, the brother who learned from all his older brothers, has been named by Rolling Stone Magazine as one of the ten greatest bass players of all time.As a family band, they are second to none. The Brothers music bends and defines genres; amplifies centuries, and spans continents. The Wooten Brothers began in RThe Wootens, that combined Electronic, Funk, Soul, Disco, and Boogieand offered only a sliver of the Wooten whole. The Wooten whole is all of thatand classical, and jazz, and country, and Rock-and-Roll. Connecting a musically deep past to musical future, the Wooten Brothers explode genres and build bridges across genres. Bar by bar, in live performances and on recordings, they provide an exhilarating connects-you-to-the-center-of-the-universe sound.
