Trombone Short & Orleans Avenue are
a funk/pop/hip-hop mix populated
with musicians like frontman Troy
"Trombone Shorty"Andrews who are
young in age only. Orleans Avenue
brings the heat winding audiences up
in merry confusion. Jazz fans shake
their heads in unexpected delight
while the funksters shake what they
got with glee. Things reach a fever
pitch as Andrews starts his circular
breathing-one note sustained in
pristine beauty while the band vamps
on a second line beat and sax player
James Martin dances so ugly it's
funky. Virtuosity and exuberance,
Orleans Avenue effortlessly combines
both. With Mike Ballard on bass,
James Martin on tenor sax, Pete
Murano on guitar, Joey Peebles on
drums, and Charlie Smith on
keyboards, their performances
transcend the boundaries of
generations and classification.
Trombone Shorty and Orleans Avenue
is high energy, high octane and
highly contagious.

Urban Sun was born
and bred here in NYC. Funk, Soul &
Rock are the main ingredients that
make up the Grooves. Comprised of
musicians from many spectrums, this
ecclectic crew gets the people
moving.
Period.
Seriously funky, tight, horn
infused, funk rock grooves with
frontman ( Ipod Dancer!) J-Trom
dancing all over the joint creating
a vibe of freedom and excitement for
ALL to take part in. That's why they
do it, that's how they like to do
it! For the people, for the love of
music, and for the love of Funk.
