Funk: Trombone Shorty


Trombone Shorty, real name Troy Andrews, is a jazz-funk trombone player from New Orleans. I discovered him several years ago when I came across a live performance of him on TV. His style is a combination of jazz and funk spiced up with some rock and hiphop influences. Unfortunately he doesn't have many videos on YouTube, but you can find some footage of  several jazz festival performances. After a silent four years he finally released his fourth album earlier this year.
