Bela Fleck and the Fleck Tones.
Victor Wooten is a bass virtuoso, quite possibly one of the best that has ever lived. Bela is a genius on the banjo, Jeff is a wind horn god and Futch... well he is just bizarre, but brilliant in his own way. He plays an instrument he invented and custom made which he calls a synth axe or drumitar. It's a series of synthesized percussion sounds incorporated into a electric guitar frame. Instead of strings he has a bunch of buttons he manipulates to generate his sound. The band has no drummer. Just Futch, who generates the sounds and rythms of an entire percussion section with a few of his fingers.
Amazing. Simply amazing. If your into talent or just appreciate gifted musicians, these guys will blow you away.
