Jazz master Herbie Hancock will play with Chinese classical piano sensation Lang Lang; studio legends Steely Dan are on a double bill with a quintessential live act, the Dave Matthews Band; and New York City bassist Bill Laswell, purveyor of "collision music," is bringing along Japanese turntablist DJ Krush...
