Grammy award-winning bassist Trae Pierce is leading a new wild musical experience known as Trae Pierce & the T-Stones (TPTS). Defined by hard-edged funk infused with rock, hip-hop and blues, TPTS has developed a high energy live show with a modern feel that also recalls the unstoppable grooves of Bootsy Collins: they “want to funk you up”. Trae is a world-class bassist and four time Grammy award-winner (with legendary Blind Boys of Alabama) who cut his bass chops as a member of the Ohio Players.
