Trombone Shorty – Lifted (LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Troy Andrews has been holding down the streets of Treme since he was a kid, leading brass band parades before most musicians his age had touched an instrument. That deep-rooted connection to New Orleans tradition, combined with a relentless road presence built through years of festival stages and late-night club sets, gives Lifted a weight that studio polish alone can't manufacture. This is the sound of a bandleader at full command.
Trombone Shorty returns with Lifted, his first album in 5 years and the follow-up to his Blue Note debut Parking Lot Symphony, featuring special guests including vocalist Lauren Daigle & guitarist Gary Clark Jr. An album that captures the energy of his legendary live shows, Lifted combines classic New Orleans sounds (funk, gospel, street rhythms, Mardi Gras Indian chants & second lines) with modern lyrics, melody & beats to create something fresh & unique. Part Jimi Hendrix, part James Brown and all New Orleans, Troy “Trombone Shorty” Andrews is the bandleader and frontman of Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue, a hard-edged funk band that employs brass-band beats, rock dynamics & improvisation in a jazz tradition.
