Robert Glasper’s vision and inspiration shape the talent and tone of the entire experience.”
Artists will perform across two stages at The Meritage Resort & Spa while attendees get to indulge in delicious food, wine to match, a pool party, and several intimate after-parties all while having great music serve as a soundtrack to the weekend.
