-JQ- Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 [full disclosure: I was a trombone player in HS] OK so maybe this tune isn't quite what you'd expect on a gun board. Let's put is under the heading of "finding music for your honey" or what ever works for you...but this dude puts down. He plays the trombone as well as he plays the trumpet in this one...certainly not a bad singer. Well worth the 9 minutes...soothes your soul. Search for his other tunes on the you tuber - quite a lot of talent with this player. Makes me wonder how many hours HE practiced everyday...more than me for sure.

-JQ- Posted August 26, 2011 Author Share Posted August 26, 2011 Even better link...to the whole set on Austin City Limits. About 14 minutes in he sets that trombone on fire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSEMARTIN Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 He's a pretty good trumpet player as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammar Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Living in New Orleans, I am fortunate to get to hear him live often. Plenty more great musicians like him playing down here just about every night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSEMARTIN Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 He and Wynton do a duo type thing at a Blues House I saw on youtube that was pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Unnatural Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 I saw him this year at the North Sea jazz festival in Rotterdam - Netherlands. you can find some footage on youtube. I was blown away, he is awesome, I like trombone players a lot, especially the funky ones like him and Fred Wesley. Together with The Robert Randolph family band the best concerts (North Sea Jazz, is 3 days 12 stages) it's one of the best and biggest festivals.

rvb Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 saw him on some late night talk show the other night (conan?). never heard of him prior and was impressed. Actual musical talent stands out these days.... -rvb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
