Trombone Shorty – Backatown (CD)
Product Details
Troy Andrews was blowing trombone on the streets of Tremé before he was old enough to drive, cutting his teeth in one of the most musically competitive neighborhoods on earth. Backatown, named for that Tremé homebase, arrived in 2010 as his Verve debut and introduced his hurricane-force live show to a much wider audience, capturing the kind of raw energy that had already made him a fixture at Jazz Fest and a sought-after collaborator across generations of New Orleans royalty.
Troy 'Trombone Shorty' Andrews' Is a Rare Artist Who Can Draw Both the Unqualified Respect of Jazz Legends And Deliver a High-Energy Rock Show Capable of Mesmerizing International Rock Stars And Audiences Alike. With Such An Unprecedented Mix of Rock, Funk, Jazz, Hip-Hop And Soul, He Had to Create His Own Name to Describe His Signature Sound: Supafunkrock! Andrews Is the Kind of Player Who Comes Along Maybe Once in a Generation, And Backatown Is the Latest, Clearest Proof That His Artistry Is As Singular As His Raw Talent.
