He's one of those guys immensely talented, seemingly appearing from out of the blue, who is at once everywhere and in all manner of projects, whether it's playing in them or using his juice to get them done. Haven't heard him dud yet--we are blessed by his presence and energy. Here's his Website but it doesn't begin to cover everything he's involved with: http://www.tromboneshorty.com/ Here's AMG on his latest album--the reviewer says it should be his break-out album: http://www.allmusic.com/album/say-that-t...0002563616
YouTube's got a ton of his stuff--here's a 1-hr concert from Red Rocks a year ago. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V42wgWmhYFg
