#MusicMonday - Trombone Shorty

#MusicMonday is dedicated to Troy "Trombone Shorty" Andrews, who is currently on tour with the Red Hot Chili Peppers. He is from New Orleans and delivers a uniquely classic sound of "hard-edged funk, hip-hop beats, rock dynamics and improvisation in the great tradition of jazz aka supafunkrock". It is truly refreshing to hear such strong musicianship and hard hitting instrumentation from such a talented individual.
