Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue

Tickets on sale: Friday, June 28 at 10AM

Trombone Shorty is the stage name of New Orleans' trombonist, composer, bandleader, author, and philanthropist Troy Andrews. A childhood prodigy, he debuted with Bo Diddley at age four, was leading his own brass band at six, and touring with Lenny Kravitz at 13. Andrews' inimitable sound is fat, brash, and aggressive one moment, and warm, moaning, and sweet the next. His encyclopedic knowledge of the brass band tradition allows him to play the repertoire straight as well as integrating it in his own compositions with funk, jazz, rock, hip-hop, soul, and blues.
