Wynton Marsalis’ new album He and She (Blue Note), can be heard in its entirety on Monday at iLike. iLike’s 24-hour world exclusive will culminate with the retail release of He And She on March 24.
“What appeals to me about working with iLike is the opportunity to take He and She directly to my fans, giving them a chance to hear it in full before the album is available in stores,” said Wynton Marsalis. “It is with this inspiration that I am inviting my fans to engage with me and one another in an online dialogue about the album on my iLike page.”
Marsalis fans will have an opportunity to post questions and comments about the album on his iLike Artist Page (iLike.com/WyntonMarsalis) and Marsalis will personally respond to a select group of fans. A few lucky fans who submit a question will receive a special gift.
