Buzz Worthy: Trombone Shorty rocks Sarasota Blues Festival

Andrews has been a virtuoso horn player since his teens but as someone who has seen the 24-year-old perform numerous times in the past five years, it's worth noting his growth as a vocalist. Andrews has also developed an effective falsetto for the sexy time numbers and a show-stopping banshee yell borrowed from the James Brown playbook....

Attendees at the WMNF’s Tropical Heatwave 2007 in Ybor City were the first Floridians to be blown away by Andrews, who has been a household name in his native New Orleans since his early teens. Clearly moved by the adoring audience, Andrews leaped off the stage for a little crowd surfing before running back to join his killer band, Orleans Avenue, for a stirring finale. I really remember feeling the love and felt great that the crowd gave as much as I gave them....

I just started to play the trombone awhile back, and I got a school one. The trombone case reeks thanks to the last user of the case, and I don't know how to clean it. If I can't clean it though, about how much is a new case?


Cleaning: I use Mi-T-Mist by Roche Thomas all the time to disinfect instruments, and it works to disinfect and freshen up cases as well. You can get it at www.interstatemusic.com. $1.98 for 2 oz, $5.88 for 8 oz. The 2 oz. should do the trick for you.

I am 13 years old and a tremendous trombone player. I want to start a career In music for the trombone. Any suggestions on a good manager or suggestions how to start. Thanks.
Bitty that was helpful, but I already have a professonal instructor. I've


I suggest that you begin with lessons. You may be good at the trombone, but it doesn't mean that coach isn't needed. Maybe your instructor could tell you about people you can talk to, and maybe you can begin a small career.
