ROCKFORD, Ill. (WTVO) — Legendary jazz musician Herbie Hancock will perform in Rockford in Fall 2025.

Hancock began his career as a pianist at age 11, playing with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. His first album, “Takin’ Off,” was released in 1961, after which Hancock worked with Miles Davis for five years.

He also wrote the scores for several films, including Blow-Up (1966), Death Wish (1974), and Round Midnight (1987), for which he won an Academy Award.

Hancock has won 12 Grammy Awards over the past 2 decades.
