Trombone Shorty carries on the legacy of New Orleans' rich musical heritage updated to a contemporary jazz sound that is infused with funk, hip-hop and rock. This rich gumbo of musical influences creates a sound that is distinctly Trombone Shorty's own. He is celebrated internationally for his trombone, trumpet and vocal powerhouse performances. Trombone Shorty, born as Troy Andrews, skyrocketed to public attention and acclaim with his first album, Backatown, which climbed to No. 3 on the Billboard Jazz Albums chart and was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Jazz Album in 2011. A charismatic performer, Trombone Shorty puts on a fantastic performance in solo shows and with his group, Orleans Avenue, that has the audience dancing and cheering in concerts around the world.A Whole Lot of Shorty
A child prodigy since the age of four, Trombone Shorty grew up in a musical family and was raised in the Treme neighborhood in the Crescent City. Some say he got his nickname because at the age of four, his instrument was bigger than he was. By the age of six, Trombone Shorty was heading his own band. Now more than 20 years later, he has worked with some of the biggest names in rock, pop, jazz, funk and hip-hop, creating music with Harry Connick Jr., U2 and Green Day. He performed at the White House in 2012 and 2015, sat in with the Foo Fighters at Voodoo Festival in 2014 and played "Stay All Night" with Little Big Town at the Academy of Country Music Awards in 2016. In 2017, Trombone Shorty and Orleans Avenue were the opening act for the Red Hot Chili Peppers on the North American part of The Getaway World Tour.Where can I buy Trombone Shorty tickets?
