About this Event

Pioneer Works is thrilled to team up with BOOM Collective to welcome Pino Palladino & Blake Mills featuring Sam Gendel & Chris Dave to the Main Hall on October 3, 2025. Grammy-winning musicians and producers Pino Palladino & Blake Mills reunite off the heels of their album-length, instrumental collaboration, Notes With Attachments.

Featuring drummer Chris Dave (D’Angelo, Anderson .Paak) and saxophonist Sam Gendel (Vampire Weekend, Maggie Rogers, and Perfume Genius), Notes With Attachments presents the shared melodic and rhythmic language of the artists, infused with references from West African and Cuban music, funk, jazz, and English folk music. This rare convergence of creative forces brings together four of the most visionary and sought-after musicians working today—each one a singular presence in the worlds of jazz, soul, experimental, and popular music.

Pino PalladinoA Grammy-winning bassist and producer, Pino Palladino has been a foundational figure in shaping the sound of modern soul, funk, and rock over the last four decades. Known for his groundbreaking fretless bass work on D’Angelo’s Voodoo and Black Messiah, Palladino has recorded and toured with artists ranging from The Who and Paul Simon to Erykah Badu, Adele, and John Mayer. His melodic phrasing and rhythmic intuition have made him one of the most revered session musicians of our time.

Blake MillsBlake Mills is a Grammy-winning producer, guitarist, and songwriter whose adventurous solo work and collaborations have continually pushed the boundaries of modern music. From his early days with Simon Dawes to producing Alabama Shakes' Sound & Color and creating immersive works like Mutable Set and Jelly Road, Mills blends technical precision with an experimental edge. His collaborations with Palladino—including 2021’s Notes with Attachments—reveal a deep musical rapport rooted in curiosity and range.

Sam GendelA fixture of LA’s experimental scene, Sam Gendel is a composer, producer, and saxophonist known for his abstract, genre-blurring approach to jazz and ambient music. His extensive discography includes acclaimed solo work and collaborations with the likes of Louis Cole, Sam Wilkes, Antonia Cytrynowicz, and Palladino & Mills. Gendel’s live performances feel like transmissions from another plane—unexpected, emotive, and deeply textural.

Chris DaveOne of the most influential drummers of his generation, Chris Dave has redefined the language of rhythm through his work with Maxwell, Robert Glasper, D’Angelo, Adele, and countless others. As the founder of the Drumhedz, Dave leads a constellation of players whose futuristic grooves blend funk, gospel, hip-hop, and jazz. Known for his time-bending syncopation and razor-sharp instincts, Dave brings an interstellar intensity to every stage he touches.
