The Bad Plus live in St. Louis

Experience The Bad Plus live on December 20th

The Bad Plus will perform at City Winery St. Louis on December 20, 2026. The Bad Plus is a jazz trio known for its unconventional approach to the genre, incorporating elements of rock, pop, and avant-garde music into their interpretations of both original compositions and covers of songs by artists like Nirvana, Radiohead, and Blondie. Formed in 1999, the group originally comprised Ethan Iverson on piano, Reid Anderson on bass, and David King on drums; personnel has shifted over time but continues to feature innovative jazz improvisation.

City Winery St. Louis is located in the Delmar Loop neighborhood and opened in November 2016. The venue combines a working winery with a restaurant and a performance space focused on live music. It’s designed to replicate the ambiance of City Winery’s flagship location in New York City, offering an intimate setting for performances. The St. Louis location regularly hosts national and regional touring acts across various genres including rock, blues, folk, and jazz alongside wine-focused events and dining experiences. The building itself is a renovated historic structure aiming to blend modern amenities with the character of the Delmar Loop district.
